This Oregon Green 488 paclitaxel derivative promises to be an important probe for labeling tubulin filaments in live cells. The fluorescent label on this new probe is attached to the 7-carbon of the paclitaxel, a strategy that permits selective binding of the probe to microtubules. Researchers have used similar fluorescent paclitaxel derivatives in a variety of systems.

Abstract
The interaction of baccatin III with the taxol binding site of microtubules determined by a homogeneous assay with fluorescent taxoid.
Authors:Andreu JM, Barasoain I
Journal:Biochemistry
PubMed ID:11580273
'The ubiquitous Taxol binding site of microtubules also binds newly discovered ligands. We have designed a homogeneous assay for the high throughput detection of Taxol biomimetics, based on the displacement of 7-O-[N-(2,7-difluoro-4''-fluoresceincarbonyl)-L-alanyl]Taxol from its binding site in diluted solutions of preserved microtubules. The state of this reference ligand is measured ... More
An incremental approach to automated protein localisation.

'BACKGROUND: The subcellular localisation of proteins in intact living cells is an important means for gaining information about protein functions. Even dynamic processes can be captured, which can barely be predicted based on amino acid sequences. Besides increasing our knowledge about intracellular processes, this information facilitates the development of innovative ... More
Molecular recognition of taxol by microtubules. Kinetics and thermodynamics of binding of fluorescent taxol derivatives to an exposed site.
Authors:Díaz JF, Strobe R, Engelborghs Y, Souto AA, Andreu JM
Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:10818101
'We have determined the kinetic scheme and the reaction rates of binding to microtubules of two fluorescent taxoids, 7-O-[N-(4''-fluoresceincarbonyl)-l-alanyl]Taxol (Flutax-1) and 7-O-[N-(2,7-difluoro-4''-fluoresceincarbonyl)-l-alanyl]Taxol (Flutax-2). Flutax-1 and Flutax-2 bind to microtubules with high affinity (K(a) approximately 10(7) m(-1), 37 degrees C). The binding mechanism consists of a fast bimolecular reaction followed by ... More
Fluorescent taxoid probes for microtubule research.
Authors:Barasoain I, Díaz JF, Andreu JM,
Journal:Methods Cell Biol
PubMed ID:20466144
'The use of the antitumor drug taxol as an experimental microtubule-stabilizing agent is widespread. Fluorescent taxol conjugates, although less employed, are very useful tools for several purposes in microtubule research. These include easily visualizing microtubule cytoskeletons in a variety of cells as well as in vitro assembled microtubules, studying the ... More
Perspective of a new diagnostic for human trichomonosis.
Authors:Lecke SB, Tasca T, Souto AA, De Carli GA
Journal:Mem Inst Oswaldo Cruz
PubMed ID:12764446
Several diagnostic techniques have been employed for the detection of Trichomonas vaginalis. Microtubules constitute the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells and are sensitive to antimitotic drugs, such as Taxol (paclitaxel). We used FLUTAX a fluorescent taxoid - to analyze the microtubule distribution in living trophozoites of T. vaginalis in urine and ... More
