The enzyme isoprenylcysteinecarboxylmethyltransferase (Icmt) plays an important role in the post-translational modification of proteins that are involved in the regulation of cell growth. The indole acetamide cysmethynil is by far the most potent and widely investigated Icmt inhibitor, but it has modest antiproliferative activity and may have pharmacokinetic limitations due to its lipophilic character
