What is Understanding Bioluminescence in Nature about?
Bioluminescence is the production of light by living organisms through a chemical reaction. It occurs in marine vertebrates and invertebrates as well as some fungi, bacteria, and terrestrial invertebrates like fireflies. The reaction involves a light-emitting molecule called luciferin and the enzyme luciferase; in animals, the enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of luciferin. Luciferases vary greatly between species, while luciferins show little variation, with one type found across many animal phyla. Biolumines
