A screen for hydroxymethylcytosine and formylcytosine binding proteins suggests functions in transcription and chromatin regulation

BACKGROUND: DNA methylation (5mC) plays important roles in epigenetic regulation of genome function. Recently, TET hydroxylases have been found to oxidise 5mC to hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), formylcytosine (5fC) and carboxylcytosine (5caC) in DNA. These derivatives have a role in demethylation of D...
