With microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) BeSO4 and MgSO4 stimulated tubulin polymerization as compared to a reaction mixture without exogenously added metal ion, while beryllium fluoride had no effect (E. Hamel et al., 1991, Arch.

The interaction of antimitotic drugs with guanine nucleotides in the tubulin-microtubule system is reviewed. Antimitotic agent-tubulin interactions can be covalent, entropic, allosteric or coupled to other equilibria (such as divalent cation binding, alternate polymer formation, or the stabilization of native tubulin structure). Antimitotics bind to tubulin at a few common sites and alter the ability of tubulin to form microtubules.
