摘要
Mind over matter: LC-MS has allowed the amount of the post-replicatively formed DNA base 5hydroxymethylcytosine (see picture; left) to be quantified in brain tissue. The nucleoside is most abundant in areas that are associated with higher cognitive functions, and its content in mouse hippocampi seems to increase with age. The new method enables hydroxymethylcytosine to be quantified with unprecedented accuracy. (Figure Presented) © 2010 Wiley-vCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
