QUICK LINKS

5-Hydroxy-2′-deoxycytidine is a modified nucleoside that consists of the nucleobase cytosine linked to the sugar deoxyribose, with a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to the 5th carbon of the sugar. It is derived from the normal DNA nucleoside 2′-deoxycytidine through oxidation at the 5th carbon. This modified nucleoside is involved in various biological processes and has been studied for its potential role in DNA repair and epigenetic regulation. It is also considered a biomarker for oxidative stress and DNA damage.
