Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal structure of obelin after Ca2+-triggered bioluminescence suggests neutral coelenteramide as the primary excited state

TL;DR: From such a higher energy state it is now energetically feasible to account for the shorter wavelength bioluminescence spectra obtained from some photoprotein mutants or to populate the lower energy state of the phenolate anion to yield the blue biolUMinescence ordinarily observed from native photoproteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interchange of aequorin and obelin bioluminescence color is determined by substitution of one active site residue of each photoprotein

TL;DR: All mutants were stable with good activity and were expressible in mammalian cells, thereby demonstrating potential for monitoring multiple events in cells using multi‐color detection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transient Protein-RNA Interactions Guide Nascent Ribosomal RNA Folding.

TL;DR: It is found that co-transcriptional rRNA folding is complicated by the formation of long-range RNA interactions and that r-proteins self-chaperone the r RNA folding process prior to stable incorporation into a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex.
Journal ArticleDOI

NMR derived topology of a GFP-photoprotein energy transfer complex

TL;DR: A spatial structure of a complex of the Ca2+-regulated photoprotein clytin with its green-fluorescent protein (cgGFP) from the jellyfish Clytia gregaria is presented, and it is shown that it accounts for the bioluminescence properties of this system in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spectral tuning of obelin bioluminescence by mutations of Trp92

TL;DR: The Ca2+‐regulated photoprotein obelin was substituted at Trp92 by His, Lys, Glu, and Arg and all mutants fold into stable conformations and produce bimodal bioluminescence spectra with enhanced contribution from a violet emission.
