Farnesyl-proteintransferase (FPTase) catalyses the specific transfer of farnesyl to Ras-peptides that is essential for oncogenic activity in oncogene-mediated tumors. Specific inhibition of FPTase activity has been shown to reduce tumor development in nude mice challenged with oncogenic forms of ras, thereby establishing FPTase as a viable therapeutic target.
