Publication Abstract from PubMedA 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.
