Application

5-Methylcytosine is used in studies of DNA methylation processes (epigenetics).

5-Methylcytosine hydrochloride has been used as standard in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the estimation of global methylation rates. It has also been used in high-resolution mass spectroscopic analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

5-Methylcytosine mediates gene expression, genomic imprinting and inhibition of transposable elements. It is closely associated with translational fidelity and tRNA recognition.
