The present invention provides for compounds, compositions, methods and systems for inhibiting cell growth. More specifically, the present invention provides for methods, compounds and compositions which are capable of inhibiting mitosis in metabolically active cells. Compounds, compositions and methods of the present invention inhibit the activity of a protein involved in the assembly and maintenance of the mitotic spindle. One class of proteins which acts on the mitotic spindle is the family of mitotic kinesins, a subset of the kinesin superfamily.
本发明提供了用于抑制细胞生长的化合物、组合物、方法和系统。更具体地,本发明提供了一种能够抑制代谢活跃细胞中有丝分裂的方法、化合物和组合物。本发明的化合物、组合物和方法抑制了参与有丝分裂纺锤体组装和维持的蛋白质的活性。作用于有丝分裂纺锤体的蛋白质类别之一是有丝分裂动力蛋白家族中的一类蛋白质,这是有丝分裂动力蛋白超家族的一个子集。
