5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5-Hmc) DNA Matched Antibody Pair
Description
5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is the first oxidation product during the active demethylation of 5-methylcytosine (5mC). It not only marks active demethylation but also serves as a relatively stable DNA mark that plays different epigenetic roles. It may be important in epigenetics, as hydroxymethyl groups on cytosine have the potential to turn a gene on or off. 5hmC is highly expressed, but expression levels vary by cell type. The highest levels are found in neuronal cells of the central nervous system.
