Bioluminescence in dinoflagellates is mediated by an enzymatic oxidation of luciferin catalysed by luciferase within specialised organelles known as scintillons. This light-emitting reaction is gated ...
A newly developed luciferase-based reporter can detect problems in protein translocation and disulfide bond formation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), as reported by researchers at Science Tokyo.
