Article Description

DNA templates containing 5-hydroxymethyluracil or 5-hydroxymethylcytosine were used in an in vitro transcription assay with RNA polymerase from Escherichia coli. A strong enhancement of transcription was observed from DNA containing the Pveg promoter whereas a decrease was observed from DNA containing the rrnB P1 promoter, suggesting that they may act as epigenetic marks.
