Methylated-DNA—(protein)-cysteine S-methyltransferase

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are DNA containing 6-O-methylguanine and protein L-cysteine, whereas its two products are DNA and protein S-methyl-L-cysteine. The S-methyl-L-cysteine residue irreversibly inactivates the protein, allowing only one transfer for each protein.

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring one-carbon group methyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is DNA-6-O-methylguanine:[protein]-L-cysteine S-methyltransferase.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, 11 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1EH6, 1EH7, 1EH8, 1MGT, 1QNT, 1SFE, 1T38, 1T39, 1WRJ, 1YFH, and 2G7H.
