Paclitaxel is an effective important anticancer drug for advanced breast, ovarian and other cancers. It was first isolated from the bark of the Pacific yew (Taxus brevifolia). Paclitaxel belongs to a group of secondary metabolites collectively indicated with the name taxanes. Paclitaxel is found in most yews, but the content is very (0-0,05%) variable.
