The Purification Properties, and Chemiluminescent Quantum Yield of Bacterial Luciferase.

چکیده
In the purified bacterial bioluminescent system obtained from Photobacterium jischeri it has been shown that the first step involves the reduction of enzyme by reduced flavin mononucleotide, followed by a combination of reduced enzyme with molecular oxygen (I). The proposed reaction scheme illustrates that aldehyde (RCHO) then reacts with a hypothetical peroxide intermediate to form a complex which, after several subsequent steps, results in an excited state arbitrarily designated as oxidized enzyme.

Expression and Purification of the luciferase enzyme and in Vivo ATP Assay
Introduction: Gene expression and purification of luciferases from the firefly, Lampyris turkestanicus, and optimization of cellular ATP measurements were performed. Methods: cDNA encoding luciferases from Lampyris turkestanicus was transferred from pQE30 vector into pET28a expression vector and pLtu28 was built. Newly constructed vector was expressed in E. coli XL1 Blue and the recombinant l...
متن کاملSimple and Rapid Immobilization of Firefly Luciferase on Functionalized Magnetic Nanoparticles; a Try to Improve Kinetic Properties and Stability
We expressed and purified a recombinant P. pyralis luciferase with N-terminal His-tags. The silanized Ni or Cu-loaded magnetic particles were prepared and used to assemble the His-tagged P. pyralis luciferase. This enzyme immobilized on functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) via electrostatic interactions of His-tag with Ni2+/Cu2+ ions on the surface of MNPs using si...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of Luminol
Luminol (5-amino-2,3,-dihydrophthalazine-1,4-dione) is synthesized and its chemiluminescent properties are explored. Both spectral and physical data indicate that the luminol is sufficiently pure, despite a low yield. Chemiluminescence of luminol is observed in the presence of H2O2 and an oxidant enhancer. The quantum yield of the luminol chemiluminescence is determined to be moderate (0.10 ± 0...

Background and Objectives: Laccase is the most abundant member of protein family that catalyzes the oxidation of substituted phenols. Laccases are used as biocatalysts for decolorization and bleaching in dye industries, detoxification in environment, and juice clarification in food industries. The present study aimed at producing recombinant laccase, purifying with high yield and fold, and char...
متن کاملSynthesis and Optical Study of CdZnTe Quantum Dots
The comparison of growth processes and fluorescent properties of CdZnTe semiconductor quantum dots that are synthesized in different concentrations of Zn2+ in water are discussed in this paper. The samples are characterized through absorbtion (UV) and photoluminescence spectra (PL). The results show that when the reaction time is prolonged, the absorption peak and fluorescent emission peak pres...
