Line 3: Line 3:
The peak emission wavelength of luciola cruciata luciferase can be altered by single amino acid changes as reported by [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1946326 Kajiyama and Nakano]. Different coloured outputs, as well as being aesthetically pleasing, allow the most appropriate wavelength of output for a particular detector to be chosen. By putting different coloured luciferases under promoters which respond to different inputs, co-reporter assays would be possible.
