FUNCTION Bidirectionally degrades single-stranded DNA into large acid-insoluble oligonucleotides, which are then degraded further into small acid-soluble oligonucleotides (By similarity).
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Exonucleolytic cleavage in either 5'- to 3'- or 3'- to 5'-direction to yield nucleoside 5'-phosphates.
SUBUNIT Heterooligomer composed of large and small subunits (By similarity).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION Cytoplasm (By similarity).
SIMILARITY Belongs to the XseB family.
