Latia luciferin analogs were synthesized and their bioluminescence activities were measured. The Latia luciferase was found to recognize strictly the 2,6,6-trimethylcyclohexene ring moiety in the luciferin structure. While the enol ether analogs exhibited no bioluminescence activity, the corresponding enol acetate analog possessed 60% activity compared to natural luciferin having an enol formate structure
合成了羊毛素荧光素类似物,并测量了它们的生物发光活性。所述Latia萤光素酶被发现严格识别萤光素结构的2,6,6- trimethylcyclohexene环部分。尽管烯醇醚类似物不具有生物发光活性,但与具有烯醇甲酸酯结构的天然荧光素相比,相应的烯醇乙酸酯类似物具有60%的活性,这意味着发光反应的起始步骤是酶促水解以产生相应的烯酸酯阴离子。
