Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
CoA enhances luminescent activity of the wild-type enzyme about 2fold, highest activity at 1.2 mM CoA. For the N-terminal domain the effect of CoA is modest, 1.1fold enhancement, highest activity at 0.01 mM CoA. Addition of CoA at higher concentrations inhibits the luminescence activity Photinus pyralis
