SmallBitNanoLuc

This basic part codes for the SmallBit of NanoLuc, which can be used as a split reporter. In combination with the LargeBit of NanoLuc and the addition of furimazine (the substrate), bright blue light is emitted (Figure 1). A flexible (GGS)5 linker is located in front of the SmallBit to enable the formation of fusion proteins. A strep-tag is also included at the end for protein purification. NanoLuc SmallBit variants with different affinities for LargeBit are available (Dixon, 2015). This basic part has a relatively low affinity (2.5*10-6 M) to prevent high background signals when combined with NanoLuc LargeBit. The affinity can be tuned by incorporating certain mutations (Dixon, 2015).

Usage and Biology

Split reporters have been used a lot to detect protein-protein interactions and for screening purposes (Dixon, 2015). NanoLuc is a small, structurally robust and very bright luciferase. Many methods have been developed using the split variant of NanoLuc, such as the HiBiT technology and NanoLuc ternary technology (Ohmuro-Matsuyama, 2019).
