5-Formyl- and 5-carboxyl-cytosine reduce the rate and substrate specificity of RNA polymerase II transcription

While the roles of 5-methyl-cytosine and 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine in epigenetic regulation of gene expression are well-established, the functional effects of 5-formyl-cytosine and 5-carboxyl-cytosine in the genome on transcription are not clear. Here we report the first systematic study of the effec...
