Digeranyl bisphosphonate (DGBP)
Synonyms: DGBP
Digeranyl bisphosphonate (DGBP) is a potent inhibitor of geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GGPP) synthase, a key enzyme in the isoprenoid biosynthesis pathway. By blocking GGPP production, DGBP prevents the geranylgeranylation of small GTPases such as Rac1, thereby interfering with their membrane localization and downstream signaling. This mechanism makes DGBP a valuable tool compound for studying protein prenylation and related cellular processes, including cytoskeletal regulation and oncogenic signaling.
