Gene Information

Application

GGTI-2133 has been used
  • To understand the role of geranylgeranyl transferase in the regulation of CXC chemokine production and neutrophil recruitment in the lung.
  • To study the importance of geranylgeranylation in cell adhesion.
  • To measure ligand-induced ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6) activation in breast cancer cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

GGTI-2133 is a cell-permeable non-thiol peptidomimetic that acts as a potent and selective inhibitor of geranylgeranyltransferase I (GGTase I; IC50 = 38 nM) with a 140-fold selectivity over farnesyltransferase (FTase; IC50 = 5.4 μM).
GGTase I mediates prenylation to induce the oncogenic functions of the Ras and Rho proteins. Thus, GGTase I inhibitors can be utilized as effective anticancer drugs. They are also useful in treating inflammation, atherosclerosis, multiple sclerosis and other diseases.
