Bioluminescence
The Plan
- Characterise the transfer function of PoPs + CHBT --> Light
The Theory
- The Luciferin Cycle:
Increasing Light Emission
- Paper on isolation of G-LRE and H-LRE, which lists previous attempts to improve light production
- Intensified light emission in presence of low ATP concentration by PPDK
- Enhanced luciferase activity through cytodine nucleotides
- Gene chimerisation to improve practical usefulness of firefly luciferase
- Genetically modified firefly luciferase - the EPIC luciferase
