  6. hi DR Moran,
    Can you clarify me on this 5th (5-methylcytosine)and 6th nucleotide (5-hydroxymethylcytosine)?

    http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/1169786

    Are they strictly considered the 5th and 6th nucleotide? I haven't had time to read the paper, but are these nucleotides considered reversible? Thank you.

    Are they strictly considered the 5th and 6th nucleotide? I haven't had time to read the paper, but are these nucleotides considered reversible? Thank you.I'd say they are the 5th and 7th bases.

    See my recent posting on Modified Bases in DNA.
