Description

Description:
Catalyses the oxidation of luciferin to oxyluciferin in an ATP-dependent process generating chemiluminescence at 560 nm (pH 7.8):

Applications:

  • Assesses the transcriptional activity in cells
  • Detects the level of cellular ATP in cell viability assays

Source:
E. coli recombinant enzyme prepared from a thermostable mutant.

Unit Definition:
One luciferase enzyme unit produces one Relative Light Unit (RLU) at 25°C over a 10 second period, measured in 100 µl assay mixture containing 40 pmol ATP and 15 nmol luciferin in tris-glycine buffer, pH 7.6, using a luminometer. Enzyme activity: >100 billion U/mgP.

Storage Conditions:
10 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.8
100 mM NaCl
0.1 mM DTT
0.1 mM EDTA
50% Glycerol

Heat Stability:
Active at 42°C for at least 24 hours (with < 5% loss of activity)

Recommended Storage Condition: -20°C
