Taxol Allosterically Alters the Dynamics of the Tubulin Dimer and Increases the Flexibility of Microtubules

Taxol is a commonly used antitumor agent that hyperstabilizes microtubules and prevents cell division. The interaction of Taxol with tubulin and the microtubule has been studied through a wide array of experimental techniques; however, the exact molecular mechanism by which Taxol stabilizes microtub...
