Microtubule/Tubulin
Microtubules are a component of the cytoskeleton, found throughout the cytoplasm. These tubular polymers of tubulin can grow as long as 50 micrometres, with an average length of 25 µm, and are highly dynamic. The outer diameter of a microtubule is about 24 nm while the inner diameter is about 12 nm. Microtubules are found in eukaryotic cells and are formed by the polymerization of a dimer of two globular proteins, alpha and beta tubulin. Tubulin is one of several members of a small family of globular proteins. The tubulin superfamily includes five distinct families, the alpha-, beta-, gamma-, delta-, and epsilon-tubulins and a sixth family which is present only in kinetoplastid protozoa. The most common members of the tubulin family are α-tubulin and β-tubulin, the proteins that make up microtubules. Microtubules are very important in a number of cellular processes. They are involved in maintaining the structure of the cell.

Trastuzumab vedotin
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-164992Purity: 98.05%Synonyms: MRG002; Trastuzumab MMAETrastuzumab vedotin (MRG002; Trastuzumab MMAE) is an antibody-drug conjugate and cytotoxin targeting HER2, with a Kd of 7.50E-11 M for human HER2. After binding to HER2, Trastuzumab vedotin undergoes internalization and lysosomal trafficking, delivering a cytotoxic payload to HER2-expressing cells and inducing tumor regression in in vivo xenograft models with HER2-expressing tumors. The anti-tumor activity of Trastuzumab vedotin is enhanced when used in combination with anti-PD-1 antibodies, and it exhibits preclinical anti-tumor activity in drug-resistant breast cancer, gastric cancer, and urothelial carcinoma PDX models. Trastuzumab vedotin has low antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity activity and can be used in studies related to HER2-positive breast cancer, HER2-positive gastric cancer, and unresectable locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive urothelial carcinoma.
