摘要:
Methods, kits and compositions containing a mixture of D-luciferin and L-luciferin for light generation with luciferase are disclosed that have improved stability when stored over time. The mixture of D-luciferin and L-luciferin can be used to detect the presence or amount of ATP or of luciferase in a sample.
摘要:
Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for stabilizing a luminogenic substrate such as coelenterazine or a functional analog thereof. The functional analog may be furimazine. The composition may include the luminogenic substrate, a thionucleoside, and an organic solvent, in which the thionucleoside is present in an amount effective to stabilize the luminogenic composition against decomposition. The method provided herein stabilizes the luminogenic substrate against decomposition by contacting the luminogenic substrate with an effective amount of the thionucleoside in the presence of the organic solvent. Also provided herein is a kit containing the composition.
摘要:
A mutant hydrolase optionally fused to a protein of interest is provided. The mutant hydrolase is capable of forming a bond with a substrate for the corresponding nonmutant (wild-type) hydrolase which is more stable than the bond formed between the wild-type hydrolase and the substrate. Substrates for hydrolases comprising one or more functional groups are also provided, as well as methods of using the mutant hydrolase and the substrates of the invention. Also provided is a fusion protein capable of forming a stable bond with a substrate and cells which express the fusion protein.
摘要:
Processes are disclosed using the depolymerization of a nucleic acid hybrid to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze for the presence of a predetermined endogenous nucleic acid. Applications of those processes include the detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms, identification of single base changes, speciation, determination of viral load, genotyping, medical marker diagnostics, and the like.

摘要:
Provided herein are isolated polynucleotide encoding modified click beetle luciferase polypeptides that have enhanced luminescence and longer wavelength near-infrared signals. The disclosure also relates to near-infrared bioluminescence systems that include said modified click beetle luciferase polypeptides and novel luciferin derivatives, as well as methods of using said modified click beetle luciferase polypeptides and bioluminescence systems.
