Insights into the mechanism of microtubule stabilization by Taxol

The antitumor drug Taxol stabilizes microtubules and reduces their dynamicity, promoting mitotic arrest and cell death. Upon assembly of the α/β-tubulin heterodimer, GTP bound to β-tubulin is hydrolyzed to GDP reaching a steady-state equilibrium between free tubulin dimers and microtubules. The bind...
