Function
[TBA1B_PIG] Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. It binds two moles of GTP, one at an exchangeable site on the beta chain and one at a non-exchangeable site on the alpha chain. [STMN4_RAT] Exhibits microtubule-destabilizing activity.[1] [2] [3] [TBB2B_BOVIN] Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. It binds two moles of GTP, one at an exchangeable site on the beta chain and one at a non-exchangeable site on the alpha chain (By similarity).
Publication Abstract from PubMed
We recently reported the crystal structure of tubulin in complex with a colchicine binding site inhibitor (CBSI), ABI-231, having 2-aryl-4-benzoyl-imidazole (ABI). Based on this and additional crystal structures, here we report the structure-activity relationship study of a novel series of pyridine analogues of ABI-231, with compound 4v being the most potent one (average IC50 approximately 1.8 nM) against a panel of cancer cell lines. We determined the crystal structures of another potent CBSI ABI-274 and 4v in complex with tubulin and confirmed their direct binding at the colchicine site. 4v inhibited tubulin polymerization, strongly suppressed A375 melanoma tumor growth, induced tumor necrosis, disrupted tumor angiogenesis, and led to tumor cell apoptosis in vivo. Collectively, these studies suggest that 4v represents a promising new generation of tubulin inhibitors.
