- Epothilone A is a microtubule inhibitor isolated from the myxobacteria, Sorangium cellulosum. Epothilone A acts by stabilising microtubule formation at the taxol binding site and causes cell cycle arrest at the G2/M transition, leading to cytotoxicity. Epothilone A is under investigation as an antitumor agent. Source: Epothilone A from Sorangium cellulosum. Molecular Weight: ~493.7 Solubility: Soluble in ethanol, methanol, DMF or DMSO.
