Different amino acid replacements in CAAX-tetrapeptide based peptidomimetic farnesyltransferase inhibitors

, p. 124 - 132 (1999)
In a series of CAAX-tetrapeptide based farnesyltransferase inhibitors it has been shown that the central AA-dipeptide can be replaced by tranexamic acid, 4-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, and 3-amino-N-(2,3- dimethylphenyl)benzenesulfonamide, respectively, yielding inhibitors active in the low micromolar range. Lipophilic derivatives of these compounds showed moderate antiproliferative activity against different tumor cell lines. A promising class of peptidomimetic farnesyltransferase inhibitors was discovered through the replacement of the terminal AAX motif of the CAAX- tetrapeptide by 2-acylamino-5-aminobenzophenones.
Design, synthesis, and evaluation of novel modular bisubstrate analogue inhibitors of farnesyltransferase

Promising potential chemotherapeutics for the treatment of cancer can be developed from farnesyltransferase inhibitors. A novel class of modular bisubstrate farnesyltransferase inhibitors is presented that can be synthesized in a straightforward manner. A
