| Summary | This construct expresses the microtubule-binding domain of ensconsin in conjunction with three copies of the green fluorescent protein gene. |
| Technology Benefit | -- |
| Technology Applications | The construct is excellent for visualizing microtubules as fluorescence is intense and long-lasting, without changing the behavior of the cell. It can also be used to develop cell lines stably expressing fluorescently-labeled microtubules. |
