Abstract
1. 1. Different chemical procedures such as performic oxidation, carboxymethylation, carboxyethylation, aminoethylation, cyanylation, acylation, arylation etc. and addition of thiols to activated double bonds, titration of thiols with DTNB (Dithiobis-Nitro-Benzoate) and the reaction of thiols with organomercurials and the titration with p-chloro-mercuri-benzoate (PCMB) etc. are cited and discussed. Their chemical reactions are shown in the figures. 2. 2. We describe in this paper that several chemicals interfere with microtubule assembly by combining with sulfhydryl residues. Reagents such as Cytochalasin-A and B, ethylacetylacrylate, FDNB (fluorodinitrobenzene), NEM ( N-ethyl-maleimide), diamide, EBI (ethylene-bis-iodoacetamide, ethacrynic acid, methal ions, methylmercury, triethyllead ion and CDDP (cis-dichlorodiammine-platinium-II) are cited and their mechanisms are discussed.
