Organism

Methanosarcina mazei (strain ATCC BAA-159 / DSM 3647 / Goe1 / Go1 / JCM 11833 / OCM 88) (Methanosarcina frisia) [Complete proteome] [HAMAP]

Taxonomic identifier

192952 [NCBI]

Taxonomic lineage

Archaea › Euryarchaeota › Methanomicrobia › Methanosarcinales › Methanosarcinaceae › Methanosarcina

Protein attributes

Sequence length	158 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Protein existence	Inferred from homology

General annotation (Comments)

Function	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 By similarity. HAMAP MF_00772
Catalytic activity	DNA (containing 6-O-methylguanine) + protein L-cysteine = DNA (without 6-O-methylguanine) + protein S-methyl-L-cysteine. HAMAP MF_00772
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm By similarity HAMAP MF_00772.
Miscellaneous	This enzyme catalyzes only one turnover and therefore is not strictly catalytic. According to one definition, an enzyme is a biocytalyst that acts repeatedly and over many reaction cycles. HAMAP MF_00772
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the MGMT family.
