Abstract
Disclosed are methods and compositions for the identification of inhibitors of farnesyltransferase enzymes involved in the prenylation of various cellular proteins, including cancer related ras proteins, such as p21.sup.ras, particularly, K-rasB. Enclosed are procedures for using purified farnesyltransferase enzymes and K-rasB proteins in screening protocols for the identification of possible anticancer agents that inhibit the enzyme and thereby prevent prenylation of proteins such as K-RasB.
