[ 1 ] - Directed Improvement of i-Photina Bioluminescence Properties, an Efficient Calcium-Regulated Photoprotein

  Photoproteins are excellent reporter systems because they don’t have virtually background signal. Aequorin is the most well-known photoprotein. Three improved engineered photoproteins photina, i-photina and c-photina, were also recently developed and optimized for generation of Ca2+ mobilization assays precisely. The total light emission is greater than aequorin and their reacti...
