|
ENZYME-NAME
|
Photinus-luciferin 4-monooxygenase (ATP-hydrolysing)
|
|
ENZYME-SYSNAME
|
Photinus (firefly) is a bioluminescent insect. The first step in the reaction is the formation of an acid anhydride between the carboxylic group and AMP, with the release of diphosphate. The enzyme may be assayed by measurement of light emission.
