Firefly protein lets researchers monitor molecule linked to cancer
...chers can employ an instrument known as an in-vivo bioluminescence camera to take real-time measurements of light from luciferase in cell cultures and in cells within live animals. To use the firefly protein to monitor IKK, Gross altered cell lines to genetically fuse the luciferase protein to IKB (IKappaB), the pr...NRL scientists detect 'milky sea' phenomena
