Stable analogues of geranylgeranyl diphosphate, possessing 3-(phosphono)propionamido moieties in the place of the metabolically unstable diphosphate portion, were prepared and submitted to prenyltransferase (GGTase and FTase) inhibition assays. In one case, an excellent GGTase inhibitory activity was obtained (IC(50) = 39 nM), accompanied by a certain degree of GGTase vs. FTase selectivity.
