The Role of Different TET Proteins in Cytosine Demethylation Revealed by Mathematical Modeling

open access: yesEpigenomes
In living cells, some reactions can be conducted by more than one enzyme and sometimes it is difficult to establish which enzyme is responsible. Such is the case with proteins from the TET family, capable of converting 5-methyl-2’-deoxycytidine (5-mdC ...

Gender effects on cytidine analogue metabolism and myelodysplastic syndrome treatment outcomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In vivo, half-lives of cytidine analogues such as 5-azacytidine and decitabine, used to treat myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), are determined largely by cytidine deaminase (CDA), an enzyme that rapidly metabolizes these drugs into inactive uridine ...

Mechanism of degradation of 2'-deoxycytidine by formamide: Implications for chemical DNA sequencing procedures

open access: yes, 1997
We describe the reaction of formamide with 2'-deoxycytidine to give pyrimidine ring opening by nucleophilic addition on the electrophilic C(6) and C(4) positions.
