Abstract
The present invention relates, for example, to a liposome, which can be a basic liposome, a transferrin-conjugated liposome, or a pH-sensitive liposome, which encapsulates a compound that specifically inhibits the activity of a protein prenyltransferase, such as a RabGGTase and/or a GGTase I. The liposomes can be used as anti-cancer therapeutics including as part of methods for treating cancer, in assays, and in kits.
