LUMINESCENT PROTEIN
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/034619
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
According to an embodiment, the present disclosure provides a modified luciferase having improved luminescence intensity, and a use thereof. The present disclosure relates to a modified luciferase derived from a luminous mushroom, or a functional fragment thereof in which a mutation is introduced into at least one among arginine or lysine corresponding to position 26 and valine corresponding to position 161 in the amino acid sequence indicated by SEQ ID NO: 1, and which has an enhanced luminescence compared with the luminescence before the introduction of the mutation. The present disclosure also relates to an isolated nucleic acid encoding the modified luciferase or a functional fragment thereof.
