| Name |
Methylated-DNA--protein-cysteine methyltransferase |
| Synonyms |
3723 |
| Gene name |
MGMT |
| General function |
Replication, recombination and repair |
| 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 |
