Ubiquitin specific peptidase 32 acts as an oncogene in epithelial ovarian cancer by deubiquitylating farnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase 1

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2021
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the seventh most common cancer worldwide and the deadliest gynecological malignancy because of its aggressiveness and high recurrence rate. To discover new therapeutic targets for EOC, we combined public EOC microarray datasets with our previous in vivo shRNA screening dataset.

Protein farnesyltransferase inhibitors interfere with farnesyl diphosphate binding by rubber transferase

FEBS Journal, 2003
Rubber transferase, a cis‐prenyltransferase, catalyzes the addition of thousands of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) molecules to an allylic diphosphate initiator, such as farnesyl diphosphate (FPP, 1), in the presence of a divalent metal cofactor. In an effort to characterize the catalytic site of rubber transferase, the effects of two types of protein ...

Ras farnesylation as a target for novel antitumor agents: Potent and selective farnesyl diphosphate analog inhibitors of farnesyltransferase

Drug Development Research, 1995
AbstractProtein prenylation is increasingly recognized as an important mechanism by which functional association of proteins to membranes is mediated. Ras proteins, regulators of cell proliferation and differentiation, are among the proteins that undergo farnesylation, one of the two prenylation modifications known.

Cocrystal Structure of Protein Farnesyltransferase Complexed with a Farnesyl Diphosphate Substrate,

Biochemistry, 1998
Protein farnesyltransferase (FTase) catalyzes the transfer of the hydrophobic farnesyl group from farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) to cellular proteins such as Ras at a cysteine residue near their carboxy-terminus. This process is necessary for the subcellular localization of these proteins to the plasma membrane and is required for the transforming activity
