Spectral Properties of an Oxygenated Luciferase—Flavin Intermediate Isolated by Low-Temperature Chromatography

Bacterial luciferase catalyzes the oxidation of reduced flavin mononucleotide by molecular oxygen; long-chain aldehyde is required for light emission. At 20° the bioluminescence has a lifetime of tens of seconds, while excess reduced flavin is removed by way of nonenzymatic autoxidation in less than...
