Ansamitocin P-3 is a microtubule depolymerizing agent that can be isolated from culture broths of certain Gram-positive bacteria.{32392,32391} It binds tubulin (Kd = 1.3 µM), depolymerizes microtubules in both interphase and mitosis, and perturbs chromosome segregation.{32393} Ansamitocin P-3 also activates the spindle checkpoint surveillance proteins Mad2 and BubR1, blocking cell cycling during mitosis.{32393} It inhibits the growth of cancer cells in culture and significantly suppresses the growth of several cancer tumors in mice, prolonging survival time.{32392,32393}
