Genome-wide profiling and functional characterization of N4-acetyldeoxycytosine reveals conserved epigenetic roles in rice and Arabidopsis
In conclusion, our results reveal that 4acC is a conserved DNA modification with potential roles in plant phenotypic variation, adaptive evolution, and post-transcriptional regulation, providing new insights into its epigenetic function.
