Effects of cytosine modifications on DNA flexibility and nucleosome mechanical stability
Cytosine modifications are important epigenetic markers yet their physical influence on DNA is not well understood. Here, Ngo et al. show that different alterations affect DNA flexibility, suggesting a mechanism where modifications change accessibility of nucleosome bound DNA.
