Coelenterazine is a luciferin, a
molecule that
emits light after reaction with oxygen,
found in many
aquatic organisms across eight phyla. It is the substrate...
-
mononucleotide and a
fatty aldehyde found in
bioluminescent bacteria.
Coelenterazine is
found in radiolarians, ctenop****s, cnidarians, squid,
brittle stars...
-
prosthetic group coelenterazine, the luciferin. This is to say,
apoaequorin is the
enzyme produced in the
photocytes of the animal, and
coelenterazine is the substrate...
-
triphosphate (ATP). In evolution,
luciferins vary little: one in particular,
coelenterazine, is
found in 11
different animal phyla,
though in some of these, the...
-
bioluminescent enzyme found in
Renilla reniformis,
belonging to a
group of
coelenterazine luciferases. Of this
group of enzymes, the
luciferase from
Renilla reniformis...
- chemiluminescence.
Unlike luminol,
coelenterazine does not
require any
catalyst to
trigger luminescence.
Analogs of
coelenterazine such as CLA (2-methyl-6-phenyl-3...
-
fluorescent protein (GFP).
Calcium triggers release of the
luciferin (
coelenterazine) from the
luciferin binding protein. The
substrate is then available...
- apoaequorin, the luminop****
coelenterazine, and
molecular oxygen.
These proteins function together. As
calcium binds to
coelenterazine, (a
bioluminescent molecule...
- deep-sea
shrimp Oplophorus gracilirostris [2],
belonging to a
group of
coelenterazine luciferases.
Unlike other luciferases, it has a
broader substrate specificity...
- its
prosthetic group coelenterazine is
consumed irreversibly when
emits light, thus
requires continuous addition of
coelenterazine into the media. To overcome...
