Gene Information

human ... MGMT(4255)

Application

MGMT (O6-Methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase) is a ubiquitous DNA repair protein that removes O6-alkyl-guanine lesions, primarily O6-methyl-guanine from damaged DNA. It is a major contributor to cellular protection from the mutagenic, carcinogenic, and cytotoxic effects of DNA alkylation.
The MGMT assay kit is based on the formation of a new restriction site in a 23-mer 32P labeled ds-oligonucleotide after removal of the O6-methyl-guanine lesion. Cleavage of the new restriction site results in two smaller oligonucleotides that can be resolved on a denaturing PAGE gel.

Features and Benefits

The kit can be used for:
  • Screening for MGMT inhibitor.
  • Detection of MGMT activity in cell lines.

The suicidal inactivation mechanism of DNA repair methyltransferases (MTases) was exploited to measure the relative efficiencies with which the Escherichia coli, human, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA MTases repair O6-methylguanine (O6MeG) and O4-methylthymine (O4MeT), two of the DNA lesions produced by

Human O(6)-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (MGMT) repairs potentially cytotoxic and mutagenic alkylation damage at the O(6)-position of guanine and the O(4)-position of thymine in DNA. We have used random sequence mutagenesis and functional complementation to obtain human MGMT mutants that are resistant
