Firefly luciferase catalyzes the oxidation of luciferin in the presence of ATP, Mg 2+ and
molecular oxygen. The bioluminescence color of firefly luciferases is identified by the …

Firefly bioluminescence reaction in the presence of Mg 2+, ATP and molecular oxygen is
carried out by luciferase. The luciferase structure alterations or modifications of assay …

The bioluminescence colours of firefly luciferases are determined by assay conditions and
luciferase structure. Owing to red light having lower energy than green light and being less …

Luciferases are the enzymes that catalyze the reactions that produce light in
bioluminescence. The bioluminescence color of firefly luciferases is determined by the …

The firefly bioluminescence reaction, which uses luciferin, Mg-ATP, and molecular oxygen to
yield an electronically excited oxyluciferin, is carried out by luciferase and visible light is …

Firefly luciferase is a monooxygenase that catalyzes the ATP-dependent conversion of firefly
luciferin into a luciferyl-adenylate, which is oxidized to an electronically excited oxyluciferin …

Six chimeric mutants between Hotaria parvula (λmax= 568 nm) and Pyrocoelia miyako
(λmax= 550 nm) luciferases were reconstructed to determine the structural origin of the color …

Firefly luciferases are called pH-sensitive because their bioluminescence spectra display a
typical red-shift at acidic pH, higher temperatures, and in the presence of heavy metal …

Beetle luciferases (including those of the firefly) use the same luciferin substrate to naturally
display light ranging in color from green (λmax∼ 530 nm) to red (λmax∼ 635 nm). In a …

The bioluminescence reaction, which uses luciferin, Mg 2+-ATP and molecular oxygen to
yield an electronically excited oxyluciferin, is carried out by luciferase and emits visible light …
