Abstract:
Compositions and methods are provided for discrimination between cytosine and modifications thereof using cytidine deaminases and/or oxygenases. Variants of wild type cytidine deaminases are described which show reduced bias with respect to adjacent nucleotides upstream of the cytosine. The methods provide a rapid and convenient use of enzymes to obtain methylomes.
