ab216113 staining Firefly Luciferase in HEK293T cells transfected with RFP-tagged Renilla Luciferase expression construct or RFP-only-tagged expression construct. The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h.

The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab214950 at 1/200 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue) and RFP is shown in red.

Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

Supplementary information

Renilla Luciferase also known as RLuc is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of its substrate coelenterazine producing bioluminescence. With a molecular mass of approximately 36 kDa RLuc facilitates this reaction by oxygenation resulting in the emission of blue light. Renilla Luciferase is typically isolated from the sea pansy Renilla reniformis and has been widely used as a reporter gene in molecular biology for monitoring gene expression and cellular events due to its efficient light production.
Biological function summary

Renilla Luciferase operates as part of the bioluminescent system found in certain marine organisms. In its native environment it interacts with other proteins like Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) to which it transfers energy converting blue light to green fluorescence. This process of bioluminescence serves various ecological functions including predator avoidance and communication between organisms. These interactions highlight the importance of Renilla Luciferase in understanding biological luminescence systems.

Pathways

Researchers use Renilla Luciferase extensively in signaling and metabolic pathway analyses. It plays an important role in the study of G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) pathways where it can help to analyze receptor activation and downstream communication. In these pathways it often pairs with other luminescent or fluorescent markers like Firefly Luciferase or GFP enabling simultaneous dual-reporter assays to provide more comprehensive data on cellular responses.

Renilla Luciferase aids in the study of cancer and infectious diseases. Its role in reporter assays facilitates the investigation of gene expression changes and the screening of potential therapeutic compounds. For example in cancer research it is frequently paired with p53 proteins for studying apoptosis and cell cycle regulation. Similarly in infectious disease studies Renilla Luciferase reporters can track viral infections and the efficacy of antiviral drugs. These applications highlight its value in advancing biomedical research and drug development.

Target data

Upon binding the substrate, the enzyme catalyzes an oxygenation, producing a very short-lived hydroperoxide that cyclizes into a dioxetanone structure, which collapses, releasing a CO(2) molecule. The spontaneous breakdown of the dioxetanone releases the energy (about 50 kcal/mole) that is necessary to generate the excited state of the coelenteramide product, which is the singlet form of the monoanion. In vivo the product undergoes the process of nonradiative energy transfer to an accessory protein, a green fluorescent protein (GFP), which results in green bioluminescence. In vitro, in the absence of GFP, the product emits blue light.
