Inhibition of farnesyl transferases from malignant and non-malignant cultured human lymphocytes by prenyl substrate analogues.
    Biochemical and biophysical research communications, 1991, Dec-16, Volume: 181, Issue:2

    Cytosolic prenyl transferases from two human lymphoid tissue-derived cell lines, IM-9 and Molt-4 cells, are shown to isoprenylate recombinant p21H-ras. Isoprenylation was inhibited by an N-acetylated pentapeptide (N-Ac-Lys-Cys-Val-Leu-Ser), c,t-farnesyl diphosphate, c,t,t-geranylgeranyl diphosphate, t,t,t-geranylgeranyl diphosphate and a photolabile farnesyl diphosphate analogue. c,t-Farnesyl and t,t,t-geranylgeranyl monophosphates were also effective inhibitors of the Molt-4 enzyme but not the IM-9 enzyme.
