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...

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...

chemiluminescence. Unlike luminol, coelenterazine does not require any catalyst to trigger luminescence. Analogs of coelenterazine such as CLA (2-methyl-6-phenyl-3...

mononucleotide and a fatty aldehyde found in bioluminescent bacteria. Coelenterazine is found in radiolarians, ctenophores, cnidarians, squid, brittle stars...

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...

fluorescent protein (GFP). Calcium triggers release of the luciferin (coelenterazine) from the luciferin binding protein. The substrate is then available...

patented substrate for NanoLuc called furimazine, though other valuables coelenterazine substrates for NanoLuc have also been published. A split-protein version...

apoaequorin, the luminophore coelenterazine, and molecular oxygen. These proteins function together. As calcium binds to coelenterazine, (a bioluminescent molecule...

its prosthetic group coelenterazine is consumed irreversibly when emits light, thus requires continuous addition of coelenterazine into the media. To overcome...
