Information About pCAMBIA Vectors:

There are two types of pCAMBIA plasmids: legacy pCAMBIA plasmids and pCAMBIA GUSPlus plasmids.

GUSPlus™ is a new reporter gene for use in molecular biology. There are GUSPlus vectors for checking transformations and screening transformants, and special vectors for use with TransBacter strains. The GUSPlus gene was originally isolated from Staphylococcus sp. but has been extensively altered by codon optimisation for expression in plants.

When you order pCAMBIA GUSPlus plasmids you can either order:

  1. The pCAMBIA GUSPlus kit which contains pCAMBIA1105.1, pCAMBIA1305.1, pCAMBIA1305.2, pCAMBIA0305.1 and pCAMBIA0305.2
  2. or individual plasmid pCAMBIA5105
