Pironetin reacts covalently with cysteine-316 of α-tubulin to destabilize microtubule
Microtubule assembly and disassembly is the target of many anticancer therapies, with β-tubulin the most-frequent target. Here, the authors used biochemical and biophysical techniques to demonstrate pironetin binds to α-tubulin and thereby inhibits microtubule polymerization providing a basis for th...
