General Comment
2010-12-21 Epothilones (named from the structural components epoxide, thiazole and ketone) were first isolated from the common soil myxobacterium Sorangium cellulosum in 1987. They are of interest as anti-cancer drugs; like taxanes, they prevent cancer cells from dividing by interfering with tubulin.
