Creating a mutant luciferase resistant to HPV chemical inhibition by random mutagenesis and colony-level screening.

Abstract excerpt

Firefly luciferase covers a wide range of applications. One common usage of the bioluminescence assay is the measurement of intracellular concentration of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for cell viability. However, inhibition of the enzyme reaction by chemicals in the assay has so far limited the application of luciferase for high production volume (HPV) chemical testing. The objective of this research was to...
