Western Blot: Luciferase Antibody (Luci 21 1-107) [NB600-307] - Reduction in CREB activity in flies following DN-CREB expression in the fat body. CRE-Luciferase reporter protein was measured using anti-luciferase antibody in Western blots of body extracts from control flies (to-GAL4 driver only, control) or flies expressing DN-CREB in the fat body from the to-GAL4 driver (DN-CREB) (top panel). Blots were stripped and reprobed with anti-tubulin antibodies as a protein loading control (bottom panel). Signal intensities were quantified and are shown as ratios to control signals (mean+/-SD, n = 5; *p<0.05, Student's t-test).

Immunohistochemistry: Luciferase Antibody (Luci 21 1-107) [NB600-307] - Detection of Luciferase expression in CD34+ cells by Immunohistochemistry. Cytospin slides prepared from transduced CD34+ cells after 3 days of culture were stained with monoclonal anti-Luciferase antibody. Luciferase-positive cells have green cytoplasm; nuclei stained with DAPI are blue. Nontransduced, cultured CD34+ cells were used as a negative control. Original magnification, 40X.

Background: Luciferase

Luciferase is a generic term for a group of oxidative enzymes used in bioluminescence. Firefly (Photinus pyralis) and bacterial luciferase enzymes are commonly used in assay systems such as cell viability assays, reporter gene assays, and for in vivo imaging. Bacterial luciferases are flavoenzymes composed of two subunits each encoded by the luxA and luxB genes, while the firefly luciferase is a single polypeptide specified by the luc gene (1). Firefly luciferase (theoretical molecular weight: 61 kDa) oxidizes the substrate luciferin to oxyluciferin in a bioluminescent reaction requiring Mg2+ and ATP (2,3). This reaction produces a flash of yellow-green light with an emission peak around 560nm that can be detected by a luminometer (3). Firefly luciferase has become one of the more widely used reporter proteins and is an excellent tool for the study of gene expression, given that the amount of light emitted is directly proportional to luciferase activity (4).

The luciferase assay is fast and sensitive, differentiating itself from the CAT (chloramphenicol acetyltransferase) assay because it does not require a radioactive substrate.
