Abstract excerpt

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 luciferase structure and assay conditions. Amongst different types of beetles, luciferase from Phrixotrix railroad worm (PhRE) with a unique additional residue (Arg353) naturally emits red bioluminescence color. By insertion of Arg356 in...
