D-64131 (CAT: I004769) is a novel inhibitor of tubulin polymerization, acting by competitively binding with [(3)H]colchicine to the αβ-tubulin subunits. By disrupting the polymerization of tubulin, which is crucial for microtubule formation and stability, D-64131 interferes with essential cellular processes that rely on intact microtubule networks. This inhibition can impact cell division, intracellular transport, and other functions that rely on microtubules.
