Abstract
⺠CoMeth is a modification of the comet assay to assess O6meG levels and study MGMT activity. ⺠O6meG is converted to strand breaks by MMR-proficient cells when MGMT is inhibited. ⺠CoMeth allows the study of new MGMT inhibitors and inducers of O6meG. ⺠CoMeth allows the study of drugs that act by demethylation of MGMT or MMR genes.
