Distal regulatory elements identified by methylation and hydroxymethylation haplotype blocks from mouse brain

Abstract Background 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is an oxidation product of 5-methylcytosine (5mC), and adjacent CpG sites in mammalian genome can be co-methylated and co-hydroxymethylated due to the processivity of DNMT and TET enzymes. Results We applied TAB-seq and oxBS-seq to selectively detec...
