Renilla Luciferase (RLuc) is a blue light emitter protein which can be applied as a valuable
tool in medical diagnosis. But due to lack of the crystal structure of RLuc‐ligand complex, the …

Luciferases, which have seen expansive employment as reporter genes in biological
research, could also be used in applications where the protein itself is conjugated to ligands …

James Michael Anderson, Harry Charbonneau, and Milton J. Cormier* abstract: When
extracts of bioluminescent Anthozoans, such as Renilla, are prepared in the presence of …

Blue fluorescent protein of aequorin (BFP) is a complex of Ca2+-bound apoaequorin with
coelenteramide and is a bifunctional protein, which shows blue fluorescence and the …

Bacterial luciferases and the genes encoding these light-emitting enzymes have an
increasing number of applications in biological sciences. Temperature lability and the …

The bioluminescence of a marine copepod Metridia longa is determined by a small secreted
coelenterazine-dependent luciferase that uses coelenterazine as a substrate of enzymatic …

To investigate the use of various luciferases as reporter protein, the substrate specificity of
recombinantRenillaluciferase, Oplophorusluciferase and recombinant apoaequorin was …

Latia luciferin analogs were synthesized and their bioluminescence activities were
measured. The Latia luciferase was found to recognize strictly the 2, 6, 6 …

Bioluminescence in the sea pansy Renilla involves two distinct proteins, a Ca2+-triggered
coelenterazine-binding protein (CBP), and Renilla luciferase. CBP contains one tightly …

We have previously reported the construction of a functional Renilla luciferase enzyme
secreted by mammalian cells when fused to the signal peptide of human interleukin-2. The …
