Results from our forumgenetically modified, transgenic organisms; help.... ones... but practically you will be faced with a bunch of problems. as jackbean already said: how will you manage to get so much light out of the luciferin/luciferase system. first step would be to improve this part before moving on to the plant thing. your plant cells should then be kind of more ...

how is Luciferin formed in animalsOops, Sorry! :oops: I misunderstood your question. After discovering my mistake, I searched internet but couldn't find the formation of Luciferin.... :oops: Only things I could find was how luciferin reacts to glimmer. LH₂ + ATP → L*H₂ + AMP + PPi L*H2 + O2 → 2L + 2H2O ...

replacing Cells in and outsOk There is an enzyme called luciferin-regenerating enzyme (LRE) this enzyme with the aid of D-cysteine regenerates luciferinoxide into Lucifer in. this reaction is common they said in fire fly. what is D-cysteine is it an amino acid? Any ...
