Reversal of the Ras-Induced Transformed Phenotype by Hr12, a Novel Ras Farnesylation Inhibitor, Is Mediated by the Mek/ERK Pathway

We have used the selective farnesylation inhibitor HR12 [cysteine-N(methyl)valine-N(cyclohexyl) glycine-methionine-O-methyl-ester] to study the role of oncogenic Ras in cytoskeletal reorganization in Ha-ras V12-transformed Rat1 cells (Rat1/ras). Application of HR12 resulted in complete restoration o...
