Gaussia luciferase is a luminescent protein with quantum yields higher than the luciferases from Renilla sp. and firefl y. The enzyme catalyzes the oxidation decarboxylation of coelenterazine to give light (λmax = 485nm) and coelenteramide. ATP is not needed for activity. Gaussia luciferase is salt tolerant and retains its activity in the presence of non-ionic detergents, cholate, and deoxycholate. In addition, the enzyme is thermal tolerant and can retain activity at temperatures up to 60˚C.

FIGURES

The diagram depicts the oxidation of coelenterazine by Gaussia luciferase to yield light. Coelenterazine-utilizing luciferases, such as Gaussia luciferase, do not require accessory high-energy molecules such as ATP for their signal. Gaussia luciferase is the brightest of all luciferase enzymes, which makes it superior to other luminescent proteins in assays requiring very low detection limits.
