Taxol is a structurally novel and clinically effective antitumor drug, which, unlike other antimitotic agents, induces the assembly of tubulin into microtubules. To characterize the binding site(s) of taxol on the microtubule, taxol-based photoaffinity reagents 1 and 2 bearing photoreactive groups on the A-ring side chain were prepared and evaluated. Taxol analogue 1 exhibits better microtubule assembly activity, greater cytotoxicity toward J774.2 cells, and more specific and efficient photolabeling of the beta-subunit of tubulin than does analogue 2. Therefore, it would appear that 1 is the better candidate for further studies aimed at the characterization of the taxol binding site on the microtubule.
