Background:Nanoparticles (NPs) are biosynthesized using various bacteria. Luminescent bacteria emit light as the result of oxidation of fatty aldehydes by the enzyme luciferase. The bacterial luciferase plays a key role in emitting light and most...

Structural properties of a bacterial luciferase mutant,

evolved by random mutagenesis, have been investigated. Bacterial

luciferases (LuxAB) can be readily classed as slow or fast

decay luciferases based on their rates...
