  • Patent number: 11661587
    Abstract: Disclosed are luciferase polypeptides with improved light-emitting activity and their encoding nucleic acids. These molecules are useful in a range of assays including luciferase-based gene reporter assays, bioluminescence resonance energy transfer assays, protein complementation assays and other applications in which luciferase enzymes are utilized as detectable and/or quantifiable labels. Also disclosed are methods and compositions for increasing the sensitivity and/or improving the kinetics of luciferase-catalyzed reactions as well as decreasing the impact of undesirable variables.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 12, 2019
    Date of Patent: May 30, 2023
    Assignee: Promega Corporation
    Inventors: John Michael Daly, Leon Michael Brownrigg, Jim Yu-Hsiang Tiao
