5'-Hydroxymethylcytosine Precedes Loss of CpG Methylation in Enhancers and Genes Undergoing Activation in Cardiomyocyte Maturation.
Cardiomyocytes undergo major changes in DNA methylation during maturation and transition to a non-proliferative state after birth. 5'-hydroxylation of methylated cytosines (5hmC) is not only involved in DNA loss of CpG methylation but is also thought to be an epigenetic mark with unique distrib...
