Nocodazole
Chemical Name: [5-(2-Thienylcarbonyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]carbonic acid, methyl ester
Purity: ≥95%
Biological Activity
Nocodazole is a microtubule inhibitor; inhibits mitosis. Also inhibits autophagosome-lysosome fusion. Enhances homology-directed repair (HDR) efficiency 9 to 31% (depending on cell cycle phase) and increases Cas9-mediated gene editing frequencies.Technical Data
