Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of biological detection, and particularly relates to a firefly luciferase activity determination method. The method includes the following steps that mixed liquid containing ATP, Mn2+, Ca2+, fluorescein, aminolevulinic glycylglycine and phosphate is prepared; the PH value is adjusted; the mixed liquid is precooled to 4 DEG C; biotinylation luciferase is incubated in the mixed liquid; the ATP is added, the mixture is put into a detection instrument, and the intensity of a fluorescence signal is determined. By means of the determination method, high throughput screening and using of the luciferase are facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biological detection, in particular to a method for measuring firefly luciferase activity. Background technique [0002] Luciferase is a general term for enzymes that can produce bioluminescence in nature, the most representative of which is the luciferase in a firefly named Photinuspyrali. In the corresponding chemical reaction, the fluorescence is generated from the oxidation of fluorescein, and in some cases, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is also included in the reaction system. [0003] The color of the light emitted by luciferase depends mainly on the amino acids surrounding luciferin. Under normal conditions it emits a yellow-green light. But if you change the serine in it to aspartic acid (protein number 2d1t), it will glow red. [0004] The fluorescence generation reaction is usually divided into the following two steps: [0005] 1: Fluorescein + ATP → luciferyladenylate (luciferyladenylate) + PPi [0...
