Abstract | A tight link exists between patterns of DNA methylation at carbon 5 of cytosine and differential gene expression in mammalian tissues. Indeed, aberrant DNA methylation results in various human diseases, including neurologic and immune disorders, and contributes to the initiation and progression of various cancers. Proper DNA methylation depends on the fidelity and control of the underlying mechanisms that write, maintain, and erase these epigenetic marks. In this Perspective, we address one of the key players in active demethylation: the ten-eleven translocation enzymes or TETs. These enzymes belong to the Fe |
