Lingulodinium polyedrum dinoflagellate luciferase
|
Lingulodinium polyedrum, a marine dinoflagellate often responsible for red tide, posesses a unique-domain luciferase enyzme. When mechanically stimulated, the organism uses this enzyme to produce a blue light, likely for use in quorum sensing.
Introduction
In L. polyedrum, the luciferase enzyme is an [x] amino acid, [x] domain, polypeptide.
