Cysmethynil

Description	Cysmethynil is a potent inhibitor of isoprenylcysteine carboxyl methyltransferase (ICMT) with antitumor activity in cancer cells. Cysmethynil treatment results in inhibition of cell growth in an Icmt-dependent fashion, demonstrating mechanism-based activity of the compound. Treatment of cancer cells with cysmethynil results in mislocalization of Ras and impaired epidermal growth factor signaling. In a human colon cancer cell line, cysmethynil treatment blocks anchorage-independent growth, and this effect is reversed by overexpression of Icmt.
