AbstractHelp

Bacterial luciferase is a flavin monooxygenase that catalyses the oxidation of long-chain aldehydes and releases energy in the form of visible light, and which uses flavin as a substrate rather than a cofactor [1]. Bacterial luciferase is an alpha/beta (LuxA/LuxB) heterodimer, where each individual subunit folds into a single TIM (beta/alpha)8-barrel domain. There are structural similarities between bacterial luciferase and nonfluorescent flavoproteins (LuxF, FP390), alkanesulphonate monooxygenase (SsuD), and coenzyme F420-dependent terahydromethanopterin reductase, which make up clearly related families with somewhat different folds [2, 3, 4].

More information about these proteins can be found at Protein of the Month: Luciferase [5].
