Thematic review series: Lipid Posttranslational Modifications. Fighting parasitic disease by blocking protein farnesylation

Protein farnesylation is a form of posttranslational modification that occurs in most, if not all, eukaryotic cells. Inhibitors of protein farnesyltransferase (PFTIs) have been developed as anticancer chemotherapeutic agents. Using the knowledge gained from the development of PFTIs for the treatment...
