SEMIPEPTOID FARNESYL PROTEIN TRANSFERASE INHIBITORS AND ANALOGS THEREOF

摘要

A farnesyl protein transferase (i.e., farnesyltransferase) inhibitors formed as peptoid and semipeptoid peptidomimetic compounds derived from a farnesyltransferase universal recognition tetrapeptide sequence CAAX (i.e., CAAX motif) and analogs thereof, and to the use of these compounds and analogs and ester derivatives thereof as chemotherapeutic agents in oncogenic or non-oncogenic Ras associated cancers and proliferative diseases.
