General description

A cell-permeable, prodrug form of the GGTase I inhibitor GGTI-297 (Cat. No. 345882). Inhibits the processing of Rap 1A (IC50 = 3 μM) but had no effect on the processing of H-Ras even at concentrations of 15 μM. Also arrests cells in the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle, induces apoptosis and enhances nitric oxide synthase-2 induction by IL-1β.

Inhibits the processing of Rap 1A (IC50 = 3 μM) but has no effect on the processing of H-Ras even at concentrations of 15 μM. Inhibits PDGF-receptor tyrosine phosphorylation. Also arrests cells in the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle, induces apoptosis, and enhances iNOS induction by IL-1β.

Recently we have shown that in fibroblasts (NIH 3T3 and Rat-1 cells) inhibition of protein geranylgeranylation leads to a G0/G1 arrest, whereas inhibition of protein farnesylation does not affect cell cycle distribution. Here we demonstrate that in human tumor cells

Recently, we have designed farnesyltransferase and geranylgeranyltransferase I inhibitors (FTI-277 and GGTI-298) that selectively block protein farnesylation and geranylgeranylation, respectively. In this study, we describe the opposing effects of these inhibitors on interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta)-stimulated induction of nitric-oxide synthase-2 (NOS-2) in

The mechanism by which the geranylgeranyltransferase I inhibitor GGTI-298 and the farnesyltransferase inhibitor FTI-277 inhibit human tumor growth is not known. Herein, we demonstrate that in the human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells, GGTI-298 induced a G1-G0 block whereas FTI-277 induced

We have used specific inhibitors for farnesyltransferase (FTase) and geranylgeranyltransferase (GGTase) I as well as combinations of lovastatin with geranylgeraniol (GGOH) or farnesol (FOH) to investigate the role of protein prenylation in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-induced PDGF receptor tyrosine phosphorylation.

In this paper we describe the synthesis of a family of CAAL peptidomimetics as GGTase-I inhibitors. These inhibitors lack the central dipeptide AA in the key CAAL carboxy terminal sequence of geranylgeranylated proteins and are more selective for GGTase-I over
