Absorption Spectrum of the Firefly Luciferin Anion Isolated in Vacuo
The excited-state physics of the firefly luciferin anion depends on its chemical environment, and it is therefore important to establish the intrinsic behavior of the bare ion.

Chimeric fungal-firefly luciferins exhibit red shifted fungal bioluminescence [PDF]
A rational design of new luciferins based upon the combination of luciferins from different lineages is exemplified by the synthesis of chimeric luciferins from a combination of fungal and firefly luciferin.

Robust Light Emission from Cyclic Alkylaminoluciferin Substrates for Firefly Luciferase
Firefly luciferase utilizes the chemical energy of ATP and oxygen to convert its substrate, d-luciferin, into an excited-state oxyluciferin molecule.

The inhibition mechanisms of the firefly luciferase (Luc) by three of the most important inhibitors of the reactions catalysed by Luc, dehydroluciferyl-coenzyme A (L-CoA), dehydroluciferin (L) and L-luciferin (L-LH(2)) were investigated. Light production

Synthesis and Characterization of a Novel Near-Infrared Luciferin
Bioluminescence imaging is used to monitor biological processes and human diseases in animal models. Firefly luciferase and its substrate D-luciferin are commonly used in preclinical cancer research to study these processes in vivo and in vitro.

Chemical biology study of firefly bioluminescence
電気通信大学博士(理学)2013Firefly bioluminescence is an enzymatic reaction, which requires Mg2+, ATP, and O2. The mechanism of this bioluminescence is as follows; first, the luciferase catalyzes the adenylylation of the luciferin and then the oxygenation of the ...

D-luciferin is the natural substrate of all luciferases that catalyze the production of light in bioluminescent insects. The present review covers the synthesis of D-luciferin and derivatives or analogues that are substrates or inhibitors of the ...
