Monastrol
Monastrol is a cell-permeable small molecule that selectively inhibits the mitotic kinesin Eg5 (KIF11) . This action induces monopolar spindles and mitotic arrest, making it a valuable chemical tool for studying cell division mechanisms in both in vitro and in vivo cancer research models.
