A human tissue map of 5-hydroxymethylcytosines exhibits tissue specificity through gene and enhancer modulation

DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) modification is associated with gene transcription and used as a mark of mammalian development. Here the authors report a comprehensive 5hmC tissue map and analysis of 5hmC genomic distributions in 19 human tissues derived from 10 organ systems, thus providing insi...
