The biological role of DNA modifications deposited over gene bodies

5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) are the most common DNA modifications in vertebrate genomes. Promoter-residing 5mC is a well-established transcriptional repression mark. However, the role of gene body DNA modifications, especially those involving 5hmC, remains elusive and c...
