N6-Methyl-dATP
N6-Methyl-dATP is a dATP (HY-136648) derivative. N6-Methyl-dATP is hydrolyzed by MTH1 to its monophosphate form and eliminated from the nucleotide pool, thereby preventing methylated purines from being incorporated into DNA. N6-Methyl-dATP can be incorporated into DNA by eukaryotic DNA polymerases.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
N6-Methyl-dATP (0-300 µM) is hydrolyzed by purified MTH1 with a kcat of 2.0 s−1, a Km of 40.9 µM, and a kcat/Km of 50,300 M−1 s−1[1].
N6-Methyl-dATP is a good MTH1 substrate, and N6-methyl-dAMP binds to a hydrophobic active-site subpocket of MTH1 that accommodates the N6-methyl group[1].

Animal Model:MTH1 wild-type and MTH1 knockout (nudt1uu1732)[1]
-
Dosage:0.3 mM (~2 nL)
-
Administration:microinjection into fertilized eggs; single administration
-
Result:Microinjected MTH1KO embryos had an approximately two-fold higher relative N6-methyl-dA DNA level than microinjected MTH1WT embryos, normalized to untreated embryos of the respective genotype.
Absolute N6-methyl-dA levels were approximately two-fold higher in injected MTH1KO embryos than untreated MTH1KO embryos, while no difference was observed between untreated and injected MTH1WT embryos.
Both MTH1WT and MTH1KO embryos tolerated injection with the same level of survival as noninjected embryos.
