General description

Coelenterazine (CTZ), a small prosthetic group, is a luciferin or light-producing compound present in luminous marine organisms. The imidazopyrazinone ring in CTZ is responsible for its luminous properties. This chemiluminescent dye is soluble in methanol and poorly soluble in water. CTZ can be oxidized with the help of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and several other luciferases.

Application

Coelenterazine - CAS 55779-48-1 – Calbiochem may be used:


  • to determine superoxide production
  • to determine free radical production
  • in cell suspension buffer for in vivo reconstitution of aequorin

Biochem/physiol Actions

Coelenterazine (CTZ) is a cell-permeable aequorin luminophore that acts as a very sensitive and specific chemiluminescence probe of the superoxide anion. It can also be used for detecting changes in intracellular Ca2+ in cells that have been transfected with apoaequorin cDNA. CTZ functions as a powerful antioxidant. It serves as a substrate for multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1) P-glycoprotein (ATP-binding cassette sub-family B member 1 (ABCB1)/Pgp) and can bind with apoaequorin to form the active aequorin complex. It can be mainly used to quantify the formation of superoxide in neutrophils.

A synthetic luciferin comprising an imidazopyrazinone core, named HuLumino1, was designed to generate specific bioluminescence with human serum albumin (HSA) in real serum samples. HuLumino1 was developed by attaching a methoxy-terminated alkyl chain to C-6 of coelenterazine and by eliminating

Bioluminescence-based techniques, such as bioluminescence imaging, BRET and dual-luciferase reporter assay systems, have been widely used to examine a myriad of biological processes. Coelenterazine (CTZ), a luciferin or light-producing compound found in bioluminescent organisms, has sparked great curiosity and interest
