O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is an enzyme that repairs O-6-methylguanine, a mutagenic DNA base damaged by endogenous and environmental alkylating agents and is involved in the cellular defense against the biological effects of O-6-methylguanine in DNA. MGMT repairs alkylated guanine in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the alkyl group at the O-6 position to a cysteine residue in the enzyme. There are few reports that abnormal MGMT expression correlates with the prognosis in human solid cancers. Recombinant MGMT, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and was purified by conventional chromatography techniques. Source: Recombinant corresponding to aa1-207 of human MGMT (His-tagged) expressed in E.coli.
