Description

5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is the first oxidative product in the active demethylation of 5-methylcytosine (5mC). It not only marks active demethylation but also serves as a relatively stable DNA mark that plays distinct epigenetic roles. It is potentially important in epigenetics, because the hydroxymethyl group on the cytosine can possibly switch a gene on and off. 5hmC is abundantly expressed, but the levels vary significantly depending on the cell type. The highest levels are found in neuronal cells of the central nervous system.
