abstract：:Vinca site agents are antimicrotubule compounds that bind to the same site on tubulin as do the vinca alkaloids. These include agents that induce the formation of nonmicrotubule oligomers of tubulin (vinblastine and vincristine) and agents that do not (maytansine and rhizoxin). All of these quench the fluorescence of ...
