Dinoflagellate luciferase.
based on mapping to UniProt O77206
Dinoflagellate luciferin + O(2) = oxidized dinoflagellate luciferin + H(2)O + light.
-!- A luciferase from dinoflagelates such as Gonyaulax polyhedra, Lingulodinium polyedrum, Noctiluca scintillans, and Pyrocystis lunula. -!- It is a single protein with three luciferase domains. -!- The luciferin is strongly bound by a luciferin binding protein above a pH of 7.
