5-Methylcytosine (m5c) is a modified cytosine base which is formed as the result of addition of methyl group added at position 5 of carbon. This modification is one of the most common PTM that used to occur in almost all types of RNA. The conventional laboratory methods do not provide quick reliable identification of m5c sites. However, the sequence data readiness has made it feasible to develop computationally intelligent models that optimize the identification process for accuracy and robustness. The present research focused on the development of in-silico methods built using deep learning models. The encoded data was then fed into deep learning models, which included gated recurrent unit (GRU), long short-term memory (LSTM), and bi-directional LSTM (Bi-LSTM). After that, the models were subjected to a rigorous evaluation process that included both independent set testing and 10-fold cross validation. The results revealed that LSTM-based model, m5c-iDeep, outperformed revealing 99.9 % accuracy while comparing with existing m5c predictors. In order to facilitate researchers, m5c-iDeep was also deployed on a web-based server which is accessible at https://taseersuleman-m5c-ideep-m5c-ideep.streamlit.app/.
