7-O-[N-(4'-FLUORESCEINCARBONYL)-L-ALANYL]TAXOL(R)

Uses

Flutax 1 is a fluorescent taxol derivative that binds to the taxol microtubule binding site with high affinity (Ka ~ 107M-1). Flutax 1 is useful for direct imaging of the microtubule cytoskeleton. Excitation maximum ~ 495 nm; emission maximum ~ 520 nm.
