Regulation of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine by TET2 contributes to Squamous Cell Carcinoma tumorigenesis.
DNA methylation is a key regulatory event controlling a variety of physiological processes and can have dramatic effects on gene transcription. Methylated Cytosine (5mC) can be oxidized by the TET family of enzymes to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC), a ...

The study reveals that inadequate zinc intake disrupts gut microbiota's ability to degrade isoleucine, leading to the accumulation of metabolite KMV. KMV inhibits antibody class‐switching in mucosal B cells by suppressing the p‐ATM‐CTIP‐Hmces pathway, impairing IgA/IgG production.

The Hunt for 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine: The Sixth Base [PDF]
transfers a glucose from UDP-glucose to 5-hmC in T4 bacteriophages. Two groups independently reported the use of b-GT to detect and quantify 5-hmC. Szwagierczak et al. used H radioactive glucose to label and quantify 5-hmC by scintillation counting [10]. Song et al.

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Methyltransferase‐Directed Derivatization of 5‐Hydroxymethylcytosine in DNA [PDF]
Cytosine modification by AdoMet–dependent DNA methyltransferases is part of an epigenetic regulatory network in vertebrates. Here we show that, in the absence of AdoMet, bacterial cytosine-5 methyltransferases can catalyze condensation of aliphatic thiols and selenols to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in DNA yielding 5-chalcogenomethyl derivatives.

5-Hydroxymethylcytosine: the many faces of the sixth base of mammalian DNA.
Epigenetic phenomena play a central role in cell regulatory processes and are important factors for understanding complex human disease. One of the best understood epigenetic mechanisms is DNA methylation.
