  • Nucleic acid molecules encoding red and green emitting luciferases
    Publication number: 20050089964
    Abstract: Isolated nucleic acid molecules which code for luciferases able to produce the green bioluminescence of Phrixotrhix vivianii and red bioluminescence of Phrixothrix hirtus are described. The nucleic acid molecules and the luciferases encoded thereby can be used in applications such as diagnostic methods and molecular biology tools.
