pCB302-GFP-MBD is a Binary Vector
pCB302 is a plant targeted plasmid containing gfp encoding fusions with a microtubule-binding domain. pCB302-GFP-MBD Binary Vector is harbored in Agrobacterium tumefaciens to evaluate the heterologous expression of the photosynthetic dinoflagellate, Symbiodinium mircoadriaticum, and created by Instituto de Biotecnología, UNAM (Cuernavaca, Morelos, México).
After pCB302-GFP-MBD in Agrobacterium tumefaciens was introduced into the Symbiodinium mircoadriaticum, the cells lost their photosynthetic pigments and were left unable to reproduce. The successful transformation of the Symbiodinium mircoadriaticum was measured by GFP expression frequency measured as green fluorescence emission yielding 640 per every 1,000,000 cells. Despite losing photosynthetic ability, pCB302-GFP-MBD Binary Vector is the first step to a stable Symbiodinium mircoadriaticum transformation (Ortiz-Matamoros, 2015).

MBD- Microtubule binding domain of the mammalian microtubule-associated protein 4 (MAP4) gene
“The MBD contains a proline-rich region (P) and a region that is abundant in serine and proline (SP) that together bind strongly to microtubules and induce their bundling. The remainder of the domain is occupied by degenerate repeats (PGGG) that enhance microtubule binding, probably by stabilizing assembled tubulin heterodimers”(https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC143949/pdf/101927.pdf)
