- Scientific DescriptionChemical. CAS: 477-30-5. Formula: C21H25NO5. MW: 371.43. Synthetic. Depolymerizes microtubules and blocks mitosis at metaphase. Often in karyotyping and cell cycle research it is desirable to increase the yield of mitotic cells in a particular phase of the cell cycle. This can be achieved in a variety of ways with the most popular being the use of a cell cycle synchronizing agent such as demecolcine. Demecolcine will arrest cells in metaphase with no remarkable effect on the biochemical events in mitotic cells or in synchronized G1 and S phase cells. White blood cells are often treated with demecolcine to arrest cells in metaphase. - Depolymerizes microtubules and blocks mitosis at metaphase.
