Coelenterazine, 1 mg

Coelenterazine or coelenterate luciferin is the substrate for a number of bioluminescent reactions, including those from the marine species Renilla, Aequorea and Watesenia. In some of these reactions it is utilized as a simple substrate being catalytically turned over in the bioluminescent reaction, while in others, such as in the photoprotein systems of Mneiopsis, it is incorporated as part of the photoprotein.
