Identification
Name:1-Ethyladenine
Description1-ethyladenine is a any alkylated purine. Purines are aromatic heterocyclic compounds containing a purine moiety, which is formed a pyrimidine-ring ring fused to an imidazole ring. Alkylated 1-ethyladenine appears in DNA that has been exposed to alkylating agents such as N-ethyl-N-nitrosurea. It can be repaired or dealkylated by the E. coli enzyme AlkB with the release of acetaldehyde.

General function:

Specific function:
Dioxygenase that repairs alkylated DNA and RNA containing 3-methylcytosine or 1-methyladenine by oxidative demethylation. Has highest activity towards 3-methylcytosine. Has lower activity towards alkylated DNA containing ethenoadenine, and no detectable activity towards 1-methylguanine or 3-methylthymine. Accepts double-stranded and single-stranded substrates. Requires molecular oxygen, alpha-ketoglutarate and iron. Provides extensive resistance to alkylating agents such as MMS and DMS (SN2 agents), but not to MMNG and MNU (SN1 agents).
