Abstract: The target-finding time for microtubules interacting with catastrophe-suppressing drugs is investigated in this study. In the steady state of microtubules interacting with catastrophe-suppressing drugs, two types of microtubules exist, those with and those without drug tips. This work shows that microtubules in the first group are slower in finding a target than those in the second group. This result is consistent with experimental findings.
