5-Methylcytosine and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine spatiotemporal profiles in the mouse zygote.
PLoS ONE, 2012 BackgroundIn the mouse zygote, DNA methylation patterns are heavily modified, and differ between the maternal and paternal pronucleus. Demethylation of the paternal genome has been described as an active and replication-independent process, although the ...

TET2 inhibits differentiation of embryonic stem cells but does not overcome methylation-induced gene silencing [PDF]
, 2014 TET2 is a methylcytosine dioxygenase that is frequently mutated in myeloid malignancies, notably myelodysplasia and acute myeloid leukemia. TET2 catalyses the conversion of 5′-methylcytosine to 5′-hydroxymethylcytosine within DNA and has been implicated ...

5-Hydroxymethylcytosine: generation, fate, and genomic distribution [PDF]
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2013 5-Methylcytosine (5mC) can be converted to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in mammalian cells by the ten-eleven translocation (Tet) family of dioxygenases. While 5mC has been extensively studied, we have just started to understand the distribution and function of 5hmC in mammalian genomes.

Inhibition of DNA methyltransferase leads to increased genomic 5-hydroxymethylcytosine levels in hematopoietic cells. [PDF]
, 2018 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is produced from 5-methylcytosine (5mC) by Ten-eleven translocation (TET) dioxygenases. The epigenetic modification 5hmC has crucial roles in both cellular development and differentiation.

Tissue-specific 5-hydroxymethylcytosine landscape of the human genome
Nature Communications, 2021 Charting the landscape of 5hmC in human tissues is fundamental to understanding its regulatory functions. Here, we systematically profiled the whole-genome 5hmC landscape at single-base resolution for 19 types of human tissues and found 5hmC shows tissue-

Prediction of RNA 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine Modifications Using Deep Learning
IEEE Access, 2021 It is becoming increasingly clear that RNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), which plays an important role in several biological processes, is one of the most important objects of study in the field of RNA epigenetics. Biochemical experiments using various
