Application Notes: Potent, cell-permeable, small molecule inhibitor of mitosis. Monastrol-arrested cells are characterized by monopolar spindles.1 Does not affect other motor proteins or tubulin. Specifically inhibits the mitotic molecular motor kinesin Eg5, a motor protein required for spindle formation (IC50 = 14 µM).2 Mimics the effect of amyloid beta on long term potentiation in a cellular model of learning and memory.3 Enhances regeneration of adult axons.4
