ENZYME entry: EC 1.13.12.5
| Accepted Name |
|---|
| Renilla-luciferin 2-monooxygenase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| Aequorin. |
| Luciferase. |
| Renilla-type luciferase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| Renilla luciferin + O(2) <=> oxidized Renilla luciferin + CO(2) + light |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- From the soft coral coelenterate Renilla reniformis.
- The luciferin is bound to a luciferin-binding protein (BP-LH2).
- The bioluminescent reaction between the luciferin complex, luciferase
and oxygen is triggered by calcium ions.
- In vivo, the excited state luciferin--luciferase complex undergoes
the process of nonradiative energy transfer to an accessory protein,
Renilla green fluorescent protein, which results in green
bioluminescence.
- In vitro, Renilla luciferase emits blue light in the absence of any
green fluorescent protein.
