The light is produced by a chemical reaction that involves a light-emitting molecule called luciferin and an enzyme called luciferase. When oxygen interacts with these compounds, light is produced.
Bioluminescence is widely used for in vivo imaging of nude mice. By conjugating luciferase protein to quantum dots, bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) turns these useful fluorophores ...
