Isoform-specific and ubiquitination dependent recruitment of Tet1 to replicating heterochromatin modulates methylcytosine oxidation

A short isoform of the Tet1 enzyme (Tet1s) that oxidizes the DNA 5-methylcytosine (5mC) mark is overexpressed in tumors. Here the authors show Tet1s, but not full length Tet1, changes localization over the cell cycle upon ubiquitination and Uhrf1 interaction and is targeted to heterochromatin during...
