The native chromophore is Renilla luciferin or a nearly identical derivative. The binding of calcium ion to the photoprotein brings about a conformational change in the protein which results in the chromophore reacting with a protein side chain hydroperoxide to yield a protein bound luciferin hydroperoxide intermediate. This intermediate then decomposes to CO2 and an electronic excited state of the corresponding protein-oxyluciferin monoanion complex which leads to light emission Aequorea victoria ? - ? 89 1.13.12.24 additional information no substrates: bisdeoxycoelenterazine, C6-methoxycoelenterazine, e-coelenterazine Aequorea victoria ? - ? 89 1.13.12.24 additional information poor substrates: n-coelenterazine, bis-coelenterazine, methoxy-coelenterazine, e-coelenterazine Aequorea victoria ? - ? 89 1.13.12.24 additional information the luminescence peak of aequorin is found at 472 nm.

In contrast to hydromedusan photoproteins, in berovin the interplay between Tyr residues is conditioned rather by the pi-pi interaction of their phenyl rings than by the formation of hydrogen bonds between OH-groups Beroe abyssicola [excited state blue fluorescent protein] + CO2 - ? 443993 1.13.12.24 [apoaequorin] + coelenterazine + O2 + 3 Ca2+ the reaction mechanism of the bioluminescent protein mnemiopsin1 is revealed by X-ray crystallography and QM/MM simulations. A water molecule in the coelenteramide binding cavity is identified that forms a hydrogen bond with the amide nitrogen atom of coelenteramide, which, in turn, is hydrogen-bonded via another water molecule to Tyr-131. This observation supports the hypothesis that the function of the coelenteramide-bound water molecule is to catalyze the 2-hydroperoxycoelenterazine decarboxylation reaction by protonation of a dioxetanone anion, thereby triggering the bioluminescence reaction Mnemiopsis leidyi [excited state blue fluorescent protein] + CO2 - ? 443993 1.13.12.24 [apoaequorin] + coelenterazine + O2 + 3 Ca2+ the specific bioluminescence activities of five recombinant hydromedusan Ca2+-regulated photoproteins - aequorin, mitrocomin, clytin and obelins from Obelia longissima and Obelia geniculata is compared.
