FUNCTIONInvolved in the cellular defense against the biological effects of O6-methylguanine (O6-MeG) and O4-methylthymine (O4-MeT) in DNA. Repairs the methylated nucleobase in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the methyl group to a cysteine residue in the enzyme. This is a suicide reaction: the enzyme is irreversibly inactivated.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=a 6-O-methyl-2'-deoxyguanosine in DNA + L-cysteinyl-[protein] = a 2'-deoxyguanosine in DNA + S-methyl-L-cysteinyl-[protein]; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:24000, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10131, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10132, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:11367, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:11368, ChEBI:CHEBI:29950, ChEBI:CHEBI:82612, ChEBI:CHEBI:85445, ChEBI:CHEBI:85448; EC=2.1.1.63;
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY Reaction=a 4-O-methyl-thymidine in DNA + L-cysteinyl-[protein] = a thymidine in DNA + S-methyl-L-cysteinyl-[protein]; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:53428, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10131, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10132, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:13555, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:13556, ChEBI:CHEBI:29950, ChEBI:CHEBI:82612, ChEBI:CHEBI:137386, ChEBI:CHEBI:137387; EC=2.1.1.63;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATIONCytoplasm.
MISCELLANEOUSThis enzyme catalyzes only one turnover and therefore is not strictly catalytic. According to one definition, an enzyme is a biocatalyst that acts repeatedly and over many reaction cycles.
SIMILARITYBelongs to the MGMT family.
