Summary:The present invention relates to crystalline compositions comprising farnesyl protein transferase-like polypeptides in complex with substrates and inhibitors. Also disclosed are crystallization conditions for these compositions and their use for structural determination of FPT:FPP/FPP analog: peptide/inhibitor complexes. L'invention concerne des compositions cristallines comprenant des polypeptides du type farnésyl-transférase, formant un complexe avec des substrats et des inhibiteurs. L'invention concerne également des conditions de cristallisation de ces compositions ainsi que l'utilisation de celles-ci dans la détermination structurelle de complexes formés par le polypeptide de type farnésyl-transférase(FPT) avec la farnésyl-diphosphate (FPP) ou avec un analogue de la farnésyl-diphosphate (FPP) et avec un peptide ou un inhibiteur.
