18 Aug 2021
Abstract excerpt
To identify novel bioactive compounds, an image-based, cell culture screening of natural product extracts was conducted. Specifically, our screen was designed to identify phytochemicals that might phenocopy inhibition of the chromosomal passenger protein complex in eliciting mitotic and cytokinetic defects.
