Gene Information

human ... PGGT1B(5229)

Application

GGTI 298 trifluoroacetate salt hydrate has been used as a geranylgeranyltransferase I (GGTase I) inhibitor:
  • to study the anticancer effects of statins along with GGTI 298
  • to study its combinatorial effects with FTI-277 on statin-mediated activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 5 (ERK5) in the human endothelium
  • to evaluate the effect of protein geranylgeranylation (GG) inhibition on the breast cancer stem cell (CSC) population

Biochem/physiol Actions

GGTI 298 is a cell-permeable, prodrug form of the geranylgeranyltransferase I (GGTase I) inhibitor GGTI-297. It inhibits the processing of Rap 1A without effecting the processing of H-Ras.

KRAS is a powerful oncogene responsible for the development of many cancers. Despite the great progress in understanding its function during the last decade, the study of KRAS expression, subcellular localization, and post-translational modifications remains technically challenging. Accordingly, many facets

The increasing usage of statins (the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitors) has revealed a number of unexpected beneficial effects, including a reduction in cancer risk. We investigated the direct anticancer effects of different statins approved for clinical use on human breast

Articles

Cyclic nucleotides, including cyclic AMP (cAMP), cyclic GMP (cGMP) and cyclic ADP-ribose, have been extensively studied as second messengers of intracellular events initiated by activation of GPCRs. cAMP modifies cell function in all eukaryotic cells, principally through the activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), but also through cAMP-gated ion channels and guanine nucleotide exchange factors directly activated by cAMP.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
