Co-Crystal Structure Of Human Farnesyltransferase With Farnesyldiphosphate and Inhibitor Compound 33a

Overview

A series of novel diaryl ether lactams have been identified as very potent, dual inhibitors of protein farnesyltransferase (FTase) and protein, geranylgeranyltransferase I (GGTase-I), enzymes involved in the, prenylation of Ras. The structure of the complex formed between one of, these compounds and FTase has been determined by X-ray crystallography., These compounds are the first reported to inhibit the prenylation of the, important oncogene Ki-Ras4B in vivo. Unfortunately, doses sufficient to, achieve this endpoint were rapidly lethal.
