Luciferase‐free Luciferin Electrochemiluminescence

Abstract: Luciferin is one of Nature's most widespread luminophores, and enzymes that catalyze luciferin luminescence are the basis of successful commercial "glow" assays for gene expression and metabolic ATP formation. Herein we report an electrochemical method to promote firefly's luciferin luminescence in the absence of its natural biocatalyst-luciferase. We have gained experimental and computational insights on the mechanism of the enzyme-free luciferin electrochemiluminescence, demonstrated its spectral tuning from… Show more

“…In addition to natural convection, it is possible that a lateral heterogeneity in current density (across the Pt mesh) may lead to material transport via diffusioosmotic fluid flow, , which in turn may lead to the observed asymmetry. The average D obtained in [EMIM]­[EtSO 4 ] is 1 order of magnitude smaller than in DMSO, as expected based on the higher viscosity of the former (∼100 vs 2.0 cP) …”

“…d -Luciferin sodium salt (≥95%, Cayman Chemical Company, Michigan) was used as starting material for the synthesis of firefly luciferyl adenylate (hereafter AMP–luc ). AMP–luc was prepared and titrated as described previously. , Pyridine (≥99.5%) and acetonitrile (≥99.9%, MeCN) were purchased from Honeywell (North Carolina). 1-Butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bis-(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)­imide (99.5%, [BMPyrr]­[NTf 2 ]) and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (>98%, [EMIM]­[BF 4 ]) were purchased from Iolitec (Germany).…”
