Description and Uses

S-Farnesyl thioacetic acid is an analog of S-farnesyl cysteine which behaves as a competitive inhibitor of isoprenylated protein methyltransferase (also known as S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methyltransferase). It can also inhibit methylation of both farnesylated and geranylgeranylated substrates.

S-Farnesyl thioacetic acid is an analog of S-farnesyl cysteine, which is a prenylated protein methyltransferase (also known as S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methyltransferase) competitive inhibitors. It also inhibits the methylation of farnesylated and geranylgeranylated substrates.
