Question by 92.195.76.177

[edit]

What is the function of a tubulin? 92.195.76.177 (talk) 07:45, 17 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That is discussed at length in the article. Jibal (talk) 18:48, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Too technical

[edit]

As a non-expert, I do not get what this article is describing. How does tubulin affect the body? Why is it targeted by anti-cancer drugs? How is tubulin connected to cancerous cells? Mamyles (talk) 00:12, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Article expanded and cleanup tag removed. Hope this helps.Eikosi (talk) 21:04, 6 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sentence inappropriately located in lead?

[edit]

The sentence, "Tubulin-binding drugs kill cancerous cells by inhibiting microtubule dynamics, which are required for DNA segregation and therefore cell division." does not describe any essential characteristic of the article's subject. Would it not be more appropriately positioned in the "Pharmacology" section? Hedles (talk) 01:22, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
