Overview

This product has been discontinued.





Exhibits high affinity for S-farnesylcysteine methyl transferase (Km = 20 µM) thereby inhibiting the COOH-terminal methylation of protein in cell-free extracts and in whole cells. An inhibitor of β2-integrin-induced actin polymerization (IC50 = 5.5 µM). Known to block the fMLP-induced release of superoxides in human neutrophils (IC50 = 15 µM). Also inhibits carboxyl methylation of p21 platelet Rap1 and the γ-subunit of transducin.
