Renilla luciferin

Renilla luciferin and luciferyl sulfate. Luciferyl sulfate is extracted from the organisms with methanol. The extract is concentrated, defatted with benzene, and the aqueous layer is extracted with ethyl acetate. Luciferyl sulfate in the extract is purified by chromatography on a column of Sephadex LH-20 (Hori et al., 1972 Inoue et al., 1977a). Free luciferin is obtained by heating the sulfate in 0.1 N HC1 at 90° C for 50 sec, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The luciferin of Renilla thus obtained was found to be identical with coelenterazine (Inoue et al., 1977a Hori et al., 1977). [Pg.148]

The name of coelenterazine. We suggested calling the new luciferin coelenterazine (Shimomura and Johnson, 1975b), although Inoue et al. (1976) named it Watasenia preluciferin. The compound has been called by various other names, such as coelenterate luciferin, coelenterate-type luciferin, Oplopborus luciferin, and Renilla luciferin. However, these two-word chemical names are cumbersome to use and inconvenient when applying a chemical prefix or suffix. Currently, the name coelenterazine is widely and commonly used. [Pg.160]

In the case of Vargula luciferin the expected incorporation of one atom of lsO into C02 was observed, but with firefly and Renilla luciferins no lsO entered the C02. In these two cases, a somewhat different mechanism may hold. [Pg.1342]

Renilla luciferin was converted to luciferyl sulfate (204) by treatment of the diacetate (203) with sulfur trioxide in pyridine followed by removal of the acetyl group with ammonia (77TL2685). [Pg.624]
