A Reductionist Study into the Physiology, Pathology, and Pharmacology of the Mitotic Spindle
Mitotic kinesins represent the new age targets of spindle-poisoning chemotherapies. The kinesin-5 Eg5 is one such example, as kinesin-5 inhibitors (K5Is) induce a lethal mitotic arrest from failed spindle assembly.
