Difference between Epigenetics and O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase

Epigenetics vs. O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase

Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene function that do not involve changes in the DNA sequence. O6-alkylguanine DNA alkyltransferase (also known as AGT, MGMT or AGAT) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) gene.

Similarities between Epigenetics and O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase

Epigenetics and O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Carcinogenesis, DNA, DNA methylation, DNA methyltransferase, DNA replication, Gene, Methylation, MLH1, Promoter (genetics), Protein, Transcription (biology).

Carcinogenesis

Carcinogenesis, also called oncogenesis or tumorigenesis, is the formation of a cancer, whereby normal cells are transformed into cancer cells.
