NSC 1008 is a selective Ras converting enzyme 1 (Rce1) inhibitor that reduces Rce1 in vitro activity with a human IC50 of 8.9 μM. NSC 1008 demonstrates selectivity for Rce1 by not inhibiting human Ste24 or huamn FTase. NSC 1008 exhibits low cell toxicity, and induces mislocalization of EGFP-Ras from the plasma membrane in cancer cells. NSC 1008 can be used for the research of cancer.
