NCIt definition : An ansamycin antibiotic originally isolated from the Ethiopian shrub Maytenus serrata.
Maytansine binds to tubulin at the rhizoxin binding site, thereby inhibiting microtubule
assembly, inducing microtubule disassembly, and disrupting mitosis. Maytansine exhibits
cytotoxicity against many tumor cell lines and may inhibit tumor growth in vivo. (NCI04);
