Genes affected

MGMT (HGNC:7059): (O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase) Alkylating agents are potent carcinogens that can result in cell death, mutation and cancer. The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA repair protein that is involved in cellular defense against mutagenesis and toxicity from alkylating agents. The protein catalyzes transfer of methyl groups from O(6)-alkylguanine and other methylated moieties of the DNA to its own molecule, which repairs the toxic lesions. Methylation of the genes promoter has been associated with several cancer types, including colorectal cancer, lung cancer, lymphoma and glioblastoma. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

The c.374T>A (p.F125Y) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the MGMT gene. This alteration results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 374, causing the phenylalanine (F) at amino acid position 125 to be replaced by a tyrosine (Y). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
