Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
14966563 These studies identify isoprenylcysteine carboxyl methyltransferase as a potential target for reducing the growth of K-Ras- and B-Raf-induced malignancies.
12006387 ICMTase is a critical component of the redox-sensitive VCAM-1-selective signaling pathway and appears to activate a discrete inflammatory signaling pathway, at least in part, through the methylation of Rac1 in endothelial cells.
11906819 modulation of pcCMT activity in retinoic acid (RA)-treated SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells
17347446 ICMT inhibition induces endothelial cell apoptosis through GRP94
12631708 findings suggest that inhibition of isoprenylcysteine-O-carboxyl methyltransferase (ICMT) causes endothelial cell apoptosis by attenuation of Ras GTPase methylation and activation and its downstream antiapoptotic signaling pathway.
