The synthesis and first antimicrobial evaluation of farnesyl diphosphate mimetics are described. Several analogues (10, 12, 13, and 20) are inhibitors of Candida albicans, Shizosaccharomyces pombe, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The activities of analogues 10, 12, and 13, which contain a omega-phenyl

Stereospecific Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Farnesyl Diphosphate Isomers. -The diphosphates (Ia) and (II) are found to be very potent substrates for mammalian protein-farnesyl transferase. The isomer (Ib) is a submicromolar inhibitor of the transferase. -(SHAO, YING; EUMMER,
Prenyl, geranyl, and farnesyl derivatives containing nonionic surrogates for the diphosphate moiety, including disulfones 4-6 and 7-9, methylene disulfonamides 10-12, and carbamyl sulfamides 13-15, have been synthesized and evaluated biologically in an effort to find suitable nonlabile, neutral inhi
The substrate specificity of farnesyl diphosphate synthase from Bacillus stearothermophilus was studied and compared with that of the pig liver counterpart. Allylic diphosphate analogs having hydrocarbon chains were accepted as good substrates by both enzymes. However, the bacterial enzyme hardly ac
