Modular oxidation of cytosine modifications and their application in direct and quantitative sequencing of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine

Selective, efficient, and controllable oxidation of cytosine modifications is valuable for epigenetic analyses, yet only limited progress has been made. Here, we present two modular chemical oxidation reactions: conversion of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) into 5-formylcytosine (5fC) using 4-acetami...
