Deamination of cytosine and dUMP misincorporation have been found to be capable of producing uracil in the genome. This study presents the AI-seq (artificial incorporation modified nucleobase for sequencing), a "base substitution", which not only is capable of profiling uracil at single-nucleotide resolution and showing its centromeric enrichment but could also reveal that the identified uracil sites are derived from cytosine deamination. All the results indicate the potential biological signifi ...[more]
