BAL27862 Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Avanbulin (BAL27862) is a potent, Colchicine site-binding, tubulin assembly inhibitor. Avanbulin inhibits tubulin assembly at 37 °C with an IC50 of 1.4 μM. Avanbulin binds to tubulin with an apparent Kd value of 244 nM. Avanbulin can be used for the research of cancer and cell division[1][2][3][4].
