Prediction of RNA 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine Modifications Using Deep Learning

open access: yesIEEE 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

Tet-Mediated Formation of 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine in RNA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2014
Oxidation of 5-methylcytosine in DNA by ten-eleven translocation (Tet) family of enzymes has been demonstrated to play a significant role in epigenetic regulation in mammals. We found that Tet enzymes also possess the activity of catalyzing the formation of 5-hydroxymethylcytidine (5-hmrC) in RNA in vitro.

Cell cycle-dependent turnover of 5-hydroxymethyl cytosine in mouse embryonic stem cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Hydroxymethylcytosine in the genome is reported to be an intermediate of demethylation. In the present study, we demonstrated that maintenance methyltransferase Dnmt1 scarcely catalyzed hemi-hydroxymethylated DNA and that the hemi-hydroxymethylated DNA ...

5-Hydroxymethylcytosine is a predominantly stable DNA modification [PDF]

open access: yesNature Chemistry, 2014
5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (hmC) is an oxidation product of 5-methylcytosine which is present in the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of most mammalian cells. Reduction of hmC levels in DNA is a hallmark of cancers. Elucidating the dynamics of this oxidation reaction and the lifetime of hmC in DNA is fundamental to understanding hmC function.

Loss of 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine Is an Epigenetic Hallmark of Melanoma [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2012
DNA methylation at the 5 position of cytosine (5-mC) is a key epigenetic mark that is critical for various biological and pathological processes. 5-mC can be converted to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) by the ten-eleven translocation (TET) family of DNA hydroxylases.

Cross-region reduction in 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in Alzheimer's disease brain. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Epigenetic processes play a key role in the central nervous system and altered levels of 5-methylcytosine have been associated with a number of neurologic phenotypes, including Alzheimer's disease (AD).

High-throughput sequencing offers new insights into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2016
Chemical modifications of DNA comprise epigenetic mechanisms that contribute to the maintenance of cellular activities and memory. Although the function of 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) has been extensively studied, little is known about the function(s) of ...

Mutant NPM1 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Initiation and Maintenance

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
NPM1 mutations drive acute myeloid leukemia by acting as neomorphic transcriptional regulators that cooperate with Menin–MLL and XPO1 to sustain HOX/MEIS1 expression and block differentiation. Targeting these mutant‐specific transcriptional dependencies provides a rational therapeutic strategy for NPM1‐mutated AML.

Endonuclease G preferentially cleaves 5-hydroxymethylcytosine-modified DNA creating a substrate for recombination

open access: yes, 2014
5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) has been suggested to be involved in various nucleic acid transactions and cellular processes, including transcriptional regulation, demethylation of 5-methylcytosine and stem cell pluripotency.
