MPG also known as AAG or 3-methyladenine DNA glycosylase is a DNA repair protein with a molecular mass of approximately 33 kDa. It predominately acts to recognize and excise damaged bases from DNA playing a vital role in base excision repair (BER) mechanism. MPG/AAG is found in several tissues with high expression observed in liver and brain suggesting its importance in maintaining genomic stability in these areas.
Biological function summary

The MPG/AAG protein serves an essential function in cellular defense against genotoxic stress. It initiates the repair process by removing alkylated adenine and other modified bases from DNA. Although not directly identified as a part of any large protein complex MPG/AAG collaborates with other enzymatic components of BER such as DNA polymerase and ligase enzymes to facilitate complete and accurate DNA repair.

Pathways

MPG/AAG engages largely in the base excision repair pathway to correct single-base damage not addressed by nucleotide excision repair. Additionally its function ties into the cellular response to DNA alkylation a critical pathway concerning the maintenance of genomic integrity. MPG/AAG is often associated with DNA polymerase beta as a partner in extending and sealing the repaired strand ensuring the completion of the BER pathway.

The activity of MPG/AAG relates closely to cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Alterations in MPG/AAG function have been linked to increased susceptibility to alkylation-induced tumorigenesis. Additionally impaired function can contribute to neuronal damage associating it with proteins involved in neurodegenerative processes such as Tau. These connections highlight the importance of MPG/AAG in both the initiation and progression of specific human diseases.
