Multicolor luciferase assay system: one-step monitoring of multiple gene expressions with a single substrate

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2005
Reporter assays that use luciferase are widely employed for monitoring cellular events associated with gene expression. In general, firefly luciferase and Renilla luciferase are used for monitoring single gene expression.

Optimized application of the secreted Nano-luciferase reporter system using an affinity purification strategy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Secreted Nano-luciferase (secNluc) is a newly engineered secreted luciferase that possesses advantages of high structural stability, long half-life, and glow-type kinetics together with high light emission intensity, and thus would become one of the most

Engineering Luciferases for Assays and Imaging

open access: yes, 2013
Luciferases have served a number of purposes in biomedical applications, including within reporter gene and split reporter complementation assays. These proteins, however, have not evolved for the purpose of biomedical research, and it is not surprising ...

Clinical value of luciferase-based bioluminescence assay in diagnosis of Alport syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics
ObjectivesAlport syndrome (AS) is an inherited kidney disorder caused by pathogenic variants in COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5. In this study, we aim to apply a split-luciferase bioluminescence assay to functionally assess COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5 variants ...

Photophore Distribution and Enzymatic Diversity Within the Photogenic Integument of the Cookie-Cutter Shark Isistius brasiliensis (Chondrichthyes: Dalatiidae)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The cookie-cutter shark Isistius brasiliensis (Squaliformes: Dalatiidae) is a deep-sea species that emits a blue luminescence ventrally, except at the level of a black band located beneath the jaw.

Beetle luciferases with naturally red- and blue-shifted emission

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2018
New crystal structures of red- and green blue–shifted beetle luciferases reveal that the color emission mechanism is dependent on the active site microenvironment affected by the conformation of loop regions.

Reporter gene comparison demonstrates interference of complex body fluids with secreted luciferase activity

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Reporter gene assays are widely used to study cellular signaling and transcriptional activity. Few studies describe the use of reporter genes for studying cellular responses on complex body fluids, such as urine and blood.

Red-shifted click beetle luciferase mutant expands the multicolor bioluminescent palette for deep tissue imaging

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: For in vivo multicolor bioluminescence applications, red and near-infrared signals are desirable over shorter wavelength signals because they are not as susceptible to light attenuation by blood and tissue. Herein, we describe the development of

Codon optimized luciferases produce more light than non-optimized luciferases.

open access: yes, 2014
BCG (104 cfu) expressing wild type click beetle red (CBRlux) or firefly (FFlux) luciferases or the same luciferases synthetically optimized for mycobacterial codon usage (opt) were examined in liquid culture for light production over time in the presence
