This protein enables 5 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
DNA bindingmolecular functionAny molecular function by which a gene product interacts selectively and non-covalently with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). [GOC:dph, GOC:jl, GOC:tb, GOC:vw]
methyltransferase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the transfer of a methyl group to an acceptor molecule. [ISBN:0198506732]
DNA-methyltransferase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the transfer of a methyl group to a DNA molecule. [GOC:jl, ISBN:0198506732, PMID:7862522]
metal ion bindingmolecular functionBinding to a metal ion. [GOC:ai]
methylated-DNA-[protein]-cysteine S-methyltransferase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: DNA (containing 6-O-methylguanine) + (protein)-L-cysteine = DNA (without 6-O-methylguanine) + protein S-methyl-L-cysteine. [EC:2.1.1.63]

Located In

This protein is located in 2 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
nucleoplasmcellular componentThat part of the nuclear content other than the chromosomes or the nucleolus. [GOC:ma, ISBN:0124325653]
membranecellular componentA lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it and attached to it. [GOC:dos, GOC:mah, ISBN:0815316194]

Active In

This protein is active in 1 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
nucleuscellular componentA membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent. [GOC:go_curators]

Involved In

This protein is involved in 6 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
DNA ligationbiological processThe re-formation of a broken phosphodiester bond in the DNA backbone, carried out by DNA ligase. [ISBN:0815316194]
DNA alkylation repairbiological processThe repair of alkylation damage in DNA, e.g. the removal of a non-physiological alkyl group from a nucleobase. This is usually mediated by DNA alkyltransferases. [PMID:10946226, PMID:35543797]
methylationbiological processThe process in which a methyl group is covalently attached to a molecule. [GOC:mah]
negative regulation of apoptotic processbiological processAny process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cell death by apoptotic process. [GOC:jl, GOC:mtg_apoptosis]
positive regulation of double-strand break repairbiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of double-strand break repair. [GOC:BHF]
DNA repairbiological processThe process of restoring DNA after damage. Genomes are subject to damage by chemical and physical agents in the environment (e.g. UV and ionizing radiations, chemical mutagens, fungal and bacterial toxins, etc.) and by free radicals or alkylating agents endogenously generated in metabolism. DNA is also damaged because of errors during its replication. A variety of different DNA repair pathways have been reported that include direct reversal, base excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, photoreactivation, bypass, double-strand break repair pathway, and mismatch repair pathway.
