Identification
HMDB Protein ID HMDBP02029
Secondary Accession Numbers
  • 7487
Name Methylated-DNA--protein-cysteine methyltransferase
Synonyms
  1. 6-O-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase
  2. MGMT
  3. O-6-methylguanine-DNA-alkyltransferase
Gene Name MGMT
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in methylated-DNA-[protein]-cysteine S-methyltransferase activity
Specific Function Involved in the cellular defense against the biological effects of O6-methylguanine (O6-MeG) in DNA. Repairs alkylated guanine in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the alkyl group at the O-6 position to a cysteine residue in the enzyme. This is a suicide reaction:the enzyme is irreversibly inactivated
