β-d-Glucosyl-hydroxymethyluracil is a conserved DNA modification in kinetoplastid protozoans and is abundant in their telomeres

The unusual DNA base β-d-glucosyl-hydroxymethyluracil, called “J,” replaces ≈0.5–1% of Thy in DNA of African trypanosomes but has not been found in other organisms thus far. In Trypanosoma brucei, J is located predominantly in repetitive DNA, and its presence correlates with the silencing of telomer...
