Abstrakt: Covering: 2000 to 2014 Since their first report in 2000, tubulysins have sparked great interest for development as anti-cancer agents due to their exceptionally potent antiproliferative activity. Progress in the discovery and development of tubulysins, especially tubulysin conjugates, has quickly advanced despite limitations in their availability from Nature. In this Highlight, the key research on the isolation and structure determination, biosynthesis, bioactivity, structure–activity relationships (SAR), synthesis, and conjugates of tubulysins is presented.
