Background Information
MGMT is the primary vehicle for cellular removal of alkyl lesions from the O-6 position of guanine and the O-4 position of thymine. While key to the maintenance of genomic integrity, MGMT also removes damage induced by alkylating chemotherapies, inhibiting the efficacy of cancer treatment (PMID:23065697). MGMT is the primary mechanism for the removal of alkylation damage from the O-6 position of guanine (PMID: 17482892). The O-6 position of guanine is one of several positions in DNA bases to which alkyl groups are attached in SN1 alkylation reactions, and this repair has been well-characterized in mammalian cells and via MGMT homologs in bacteria and Archaea (PMID: 10767620).
