This protein is involved in the repair of methylated DNA. Unlike EC 3.2.2.20, DNA-3-methyladenine glycosidase I and EC 3.2.2.21, DNA-3-methyladenine glycosidase II, which remove the methylated base leaving an apurinic/apyrimidinic site, this enzyme transfers the methyl group from the methylated DNA to an internal cysteine residue, leaving an intact nucleotide. Since the methyl transfer is irreversible, the enzyme can only catalyse a single turnover.

the H5 variant harbouring five mutations (in the helix-turn helix motif) has a catalytic activity on O-6-benzyl guanine derivated substrates, whereas its ability to bind and repair the natural DNA containing 6-O-methylguanine is completely abolished
