About Lumazine protein
Bacterial luciferase derived from Vibrio fischeri, which is a strain of luminous bacteria, shows brue-green light emission (wavelength is 495 nm).
however, in luminous bacteria, there are strains that emit light with shorter wavelength than normal Vibrio fischeri (475nm,blue), such as Photobacterium phosphoreum and Photobacterium leiognathi.
It is known that blue shift of these luminous bacterium is caused by lumazine protein (LumP). LumP shifts the wavelength by interacting with the luciferase. As a chromophore, it has 6,7-dimethyl-8-(1'-D-ribityl)lumazine (DMRL), and its size is about 21kDa.
Learning from previous reports, we decided to use these proteins for changing the color.
The flask on the very right, the brightest strain, is the strain that is expressing both the lux operon and lumP.
