Glow in the D-ARK: a new bioluminescent species of Corallizoanthus (Anthozoa: Zoantharia: Parazoanthidae) from southern Japan [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
Bioluminescence is a common phenomenon found in many marine environments and has evolved independently dozens of times across the Tree of Life. In Anthozoa, a single origin of bioluminescence in Octocorallia has been proposed, while the evolution of ...

Decoding the Bioluminescent and Non-Bioluminescent Traits of Panellus stipticus: A Genomic and Phenotypic Perspective [PDF]

Journal of Fungi
The species Panellus stipticus presents a unique situation whereby some geographic strains are bioluminescent while others are not. This study investigates the factors affecting the bioluminescence of P. stipticus, focusing on culture media optimization,

Real-time evaluation of antibacterial efficacy using bioluminescent assays for Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
The emergence of antibiotic resistance necessitates effective strategies for evaluating antimicrobial agents. Bioluminescent bacteria, either naturally occurring or engineered with modified reporter genes like bacterial luciferase, provide real-time ...

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.

Bioluminescence in an Undescribed Species of Carnivorous Sponge (Cladorhizidae) From the Deep Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
One dominant ecological trait in the dimly-lit deep-sea is the ability of organisms to emit bioluminescence. Despite its many ecological roles in deep-sea ecosystems, the presence of inherent bioluminescence in marine sponges has been debated for more ...

Foraging in the darkness of the Southern Ocean: influence of bioluminescence on a deep diving predator. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
How non-echolocating deep diving marine predators locate their prey while foraging remains mostly unknown. Female southern elephant seals (SES) (Mirounga leonina) have vision adapted to low intensity light with a peak sensitivity at 485 nm.

Repeated and Widespread Evolution of Bioluminescence in Marine Fishes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Bioluminescence is primarily a marine phenomenon with 80% of metazoan bioluminescent genera occurring in the world's oceans. Here we show that bioluminescence has evolved repeatedly and is phylogenetically widespread across ray-finned fishes.

Crystal structure of semi-synthetic obelin-v after calcium induced bioluminescence implies coelenteramine as the main reaction product

Scientific Reports, 2022
Coelenterazine-v (CTZ-v), a synthetic vinylene-bridged π-extended derivative, is able to significantly alter bioluminescence spectra of different CTZ-dependent luciferases and photoproteins by shifting them towards longer wavelengths.

Quorum sensing influences Vibrio harveyi growth rates in a manner not fully accounted for by the marker effect of bioluminescence.

PLoS ONE, 2008
BackgroundThe light-emitting Vibrios provide excellent material for studying the interaction of cellular communication with growth rate because bioluminescence is a convenient marker for quorum sensing.
