Figure 1 shows significant degradation of both double and single stranded DNA upon infection with T7. The researchers, therefore, mutated a number of genes, and found out that only the mutants in genes 1 or 3 did not induce an increased endonuclease activity. It is, furthermore, stated that the product of gene 1 (RNA polymerase factor) is needed for the transcription of most of the T7 genome. Mutants in gene 3 were still synthesizing all essential T7 proteins, only lacking the increased endonuclease activity.

Figure 1 shows endonuclease activity after T7 infection of E. coli B. The endonuclease activity was not seen after infection with a mutant in gene 3 (Table 1).

The enzyme was purified and tested against various sources DNA. Breaks in the DNA strands were found (3-4 breaks per single strand before double strand breakage (see Figure 3).

After binding to the DNA junction as a dimer, the two subunits of the T7 endonuclease 1 catalyze cleavages independently but rather simultaneously before either is released from the junction (within the lifetime of the protein-junction complex) (Figure 6 and text around it, and Discussion). Similar characteristics have been found in T4 endonuclease VII.
