Product Data Sheet
Farnesylthioacetic acid
Catalog No. A88120
Farnesylthioacetic acid is a biochemical assay reagent that acts as a competitive inhibitor of prenylated protein methyltransferases, specifically S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methyltransferases. This compound effectively inhibits the methylation processes of farnesylated and geranylgeranylated substrates, making it a valuable tool for studies on protein post-translational modifications. Its applications extend to research focused on signaling pathways and cellular regulation involving prenylated proteins.
