Epothilones, a New Class of Microtubule-stabilizing Agents with a Taxol-like Mechanism of Action

TL;DR: Epothilones represent a novel structural class of compounds, the first to be described since the original discovery ofTaxol, which not only mimic the biological effects of taxol but also appear to bind to the same microtubule-binding site as taxol.

Taxol-induced mitotic block triggers rapid onset of a p53-independent apoptotic pathway.
TL;DR: Taxol induces two forms of cell cycle arrest, which in turn induce two independent apoptotic pathways, whereas G1-block and the resulting slow (3–5 days) apoptotic pathway are p53 dependent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epothilones: novel microtubule-stabilising agents
TL;DR: This review summarises the data published on epothilones and discodermolide and proposes further steps that could establish these new classes of compounds as potential second generation microtubule polymerisation enhancers.

Process for assessing tubulin protein polymerization
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for determining tubulin protein polymerization activity in a test sample is disclosed, which comprises: combining the test sample with a polymerizable tubulin proteins; contacting said test sample and polymerizable tubeulin protein with a material which traps polymerized tubulin particles; measuring the amount of polymerised tubulin particle trapped by said material, and comparing the measured amount of trapped particle to a standard.
