General description
A potent, cell-permeable, and selective GGTase-I inhibitor. This methyl ester derivative of GGTI-287 (Cat. No. 345880) is 25-fold more potent (IC50 = 2 µM versus 50 µM) than FTI-277 (Cat. No. 344555) inhibiting the processing of the geranylgeranylated protein Rap1A. Selectively antagonizes oncogenic K-Ras4B (IC50 = 2 µM). GGTI-286 has also been shown to have a significant antiproliferative effect in human malignant glioma cells.
