Development of bioluminescent bioreporters for in vitro and in vivo tracking of Yersinia pestis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Yersinia pestis causes an acute infection known as the plague. Conventional techniques to enumerate Y. pestis can be labor intensive and do not lend themselves to high throughput assays.

Evolutionary origins of bacterial bioluminescence [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 1992 SummaryIn bacteria, most genes required for the bioluminescence phenotype are contained in lux operons. Sequence alignments of several lux gene products show the existence of at least two groups of paralogous products. The α‐ and β‐subunits of bacterial luciferase and the non‐fluorescent flavoprotein are paralogous, and two antennae proteins (lumazine ...

Expression of NanoLuc Luciferase in Listeria innocua for Development of Biofilm Assay
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Studies of biofilm formation by bacteria are crucial for understanding bacterial resistance and for development of novel antibacterial strategies. We have developed a new bioluminescence biofilm assay for Listeria innocua, which is considered a non ...

Plant Methods, 2021 Background The bacterial leaf pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato (Pst) is the most popular model pathogen for plant pathology research. Previous methods to study the plant-Pst interactions rely on destructive quantification of Pst colonisation ...

Scientific Reports, 2022 The bacterial bioluminescence system enables the generation of light by living cells without the requirement of an external luciferin. Due to the relatively low light emission, many applications of bioluminescence imaging would benefit from an increase ...

Bioluminescent assay for evaluating antimicrobial activity in insect haemolymph
European Journal of Entomology, 2014 We describe an antibacterial assay based on bioluminescence of two Gram negative bacteria, Photorhabdus luminescens and transformed Escherichia coli, which can be used as a real-time measurement of antibacterial activity in insect haemolymph. This method

Impact of Anesthesia Protocols on In Vivo Bioluminescent Bacteria Imaging Results. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Infectious murine models greatly benefit from optical imaging using bioluminescent bacteria to non-invasively and repeatedly follow in vivo bacterial infection.

Automated quantification of bioluminescence images
Nature Communications, 2018 Analysis of bioluminescence images of bacterial distributions in living animals is mostly manual and semiquantitative. Here, the authors present an analysis platform featuring an animal mold, a probabilistic organ atlas, and a mirror gantry to perform ...
