Nocodazole
Microtubule inhibitor
Product Specifications
Background
Nocodazole also known as Oncodazole. It is an antimitotic agent, associated with the activity of depolymerization of the microtubules (1). Nocadozole has high affinity with Tubulin but little is known on the mechanism of binding. Studies have shown that Nocadozole binds differently to the various α/β isotypes of Tubulin. By measuring the dissociation constants, with the given binding sites, a novel approach of therapeutic agents is under study (2).
