The Quantum Yield of Luciferase Is Dependent on ATP and Enzyme Concentrations

Chittock RS, Lidzey DG, Berovic N, Wharton CW, Jackson JB, Beynon TD

The Quantum Yield of firefly luciferase relative to its substrate luciferin is a function of enzyme and ATP concentrations. The implications for molecular electronic applications are discussed.
