5-(Hydroxymethyl)uracil 是一种氧化性 DNA 损伤的产物，能够增强或抑制细菌 RNA 聚合酶转录的潜在表观遗传标记。

5-Hydroxymethyluracil is an oxidation damage product derived from thymine or 5-methylcytosine. It is a product of thymine dioxygenase. Additional deamination products such as 5-hydroxymethyluracil are formed when cells are under oxidative stress that is induced either by oxidizing agents or by mitochondrial dysfunction.
