Uniprot Description

MGMT: 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. Belongs to the MGMT family.

Protein type: EC 2.1.1.63; Methyltransferase; Nuclear receptor co-regulator; DNA repair, damage; Apoptosis
