Best Answer

You may be referring to benzoate. Check your spelling. The benzoate ion is C6H5COO− (benzoic acid minus one hydrogen ion). A benzoate (compound) is a salt or ester of benzoic acid.

Note that Benzonate is a drug that dampens the cough reflex.

Benzonase seems to be (after a quick googling) an endonuclease, active on single and double stranded DNA and RNA. And on both linear and cicular forms of DNA. Sequence specificity is low (hydrolysis occurs more often in GC rich than in AT rich sequences), and lysis leads to really short oligos (2 to 5 bases). Provided by EMD/MERK.
