O(6)-Methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is a DNA repair enzyme that transfers methyl groups from O(6)-methylguanine to itself. Alkylation of DNA at the O(6) position of guanine is an important step in the induction of mutations in the organism by alkylating agents. The O(6)-methyl G:T mismatch is recognized by the mismatch-repair (MMR) pathway. The biliary duct is highly exposed to alkylating agents because of its anatomical location.
