DETAILS

Description (English)
Packaging
Packaged under inert gas.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Monastrol is a potent, cell-permeant inhibitor of mitosis. Monastrol arrested cells are characterized by monopolar spindles. This phenotype is induced through specific disruption of mitotic molecular motor kinesin Eg5 with IC50 at 14 μM. No effect on other motor proteins and tubulin.
