Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 2.1Å Ligands: FPP, MG, Z96, ZN Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function FNTA_RAT Catalyzes the transfer of a farnesyl or geranyl-geranyl moiety from farnesyl or geranyl-geranyl pyrophosphate to a cysteine at the fourth position from the C-terminus of several proteins having the C-terminal sequence Cys-aliphatic-aliphatic-X. The alpha subunit is thought to participate in a stable complex with the substrate. The beta subunit binds the peptide substrate. Through RAC1 prenylation and activation may positively regulate neuromuscular junction development downstream of MUSK (By similarity). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMed The discovery of C-linked imidazole azaheptapyridine bridgehead FPT inhibitors is described. This novel class of compounds are sub nM FPT enzyme inhibitors with potent cellular inhibitory activities. This series also has reduced hERG activity versus previous N-linked imidazole series. X-ray of compound 10a bound to FTase revealed strong interaction between bridgehead imidazole 3N with catalytic zinc atom.
