Covering: 1988 to 2012 This review presents recommended nomenclature for the
biosynthesis of ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) …

Bioluminescence has long been used to image biological processes in vivo. This technology
features luciferase enzymes and luciferin small molecules that produce visible light …

Conjugated polymer nanoparticles exhibit strong fluorescence and have been applied for
biological fluorescence imaging in cell culture and in small animals. However, conjugated …

Evolutionary convergence provides natural opportunities to investigate how, when, and why
novel traits evolve. Many convergent traits are complex, highlighting the importance of …

Bioluminescence is a widespread phenomenon that has evolved multiple times across the
tree of life, converging among diverse fauna and habitat types. The ubiquity of …

Bioluminescence is a widespread natural phenomenon. Luminous organisms are found
among bacteria, fungi, protozoa, coelenterates, worms, molluscs, insects, and fish. Studies …

Through their diet, animals can obtain substances essential for imparting special
characteristics, such as toxins in monarch butterflies and luminescent substances in …

Proteins are the elementary machinery of life, and their functions are carried out mostly by
molecular interactions. Among those interactions, protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are the …

This review presents a synthesis of shark bioluminescence knowledge. Up to date,
bioluminescent sharks are found only in Squaliformes, and specifically in Etmopteridae …

Conjugated polymer nanoparticles are highly fluorescent colloids with tunable emission
colors ranging from the visible deep into the near infrared spectrum. Conjugated polymer …
