All three TET enzymes and their isoforms are involved in the biochemical pathway that converts 5-methylcytosine (5mC) into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC).

While the oxidation performed by TET enzymes was originally thought to be a source of DNA damage, new research has implied that this catalytic activity may actually be the initial steps of a process of DNA demethylation. This hypothesized DNA demethylation pathway starts with the conversion of 5mC to 5caC after several rounds of oxidation by TET enzymes. The next step is the removal of the modified cytosine base by thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG) which leaves an abasic site on the DNA. The last step is then the process of base excision repair in which a new unmodified cytosine is regenerated at the site, thus completing the process of DNA demethylation.<ref name='He et al.' /><ref name='Rahul M.

Experimental data shows that the TET genes have different expression patterns and at different levels, which indicates that each of the TET enzymes do not fully overlap in their functionality. | Experimental data shows that the TET genes have different expression patterns and at different levels, which indicates that each of the TET enzymes do not fully overlap in their functionality. | ||

TET Enzymes
TET enzymes are a family of dioxygenases that are involved in the process of oxidizing methylated cytosine. Members of this family include ten-eleven translocation methylcytosine dioxygenase 1 (TET1), methylcytosine dioxygenase TET2, and methylcytosine dioxygenase TET3. The gene for the first of these proteins, TET1, was identified when it was determined to be fused to the Mixed Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene as a result of a translocation event that occurred between chromosomes ten and eleven (hence the name).
