Enzyme Information
| 2.1.1.63 | 
							 Methylated-DNA--[protein]-cysteine S-methyltransferase. 
							based on mapping to UniProt P9WJW5 		
							(1) DNA (containing 6-O-methylguanine) + protein L-cysteine = DNA (without 6-O-methylguanine) + protein S-methyl-L-cysteine. (2) DNA (containing 4-O-methylthymine) + protein L-cysteine = DNA (without 4-O-methylthymine) + protein S-methyl-L-cysteine. 
							-!- This protein is involved in the repair of methylated DNA. -!- Unlike EC 3.2.2.20 and EC 3.2.2.21, which remove the methylated base leaving an apurinic/apyrimidinic site, this enzyme transfers the methyl group from the methylated DNA to an internal cysteine residue, leaving an intact nucleotide. -!- Since the methyl transfer is irreversible, the enzyme can only catalyze a single turnover.
