Abstract

Abstract— We have developed an electrochemical initiation method for the in vitro bacterial luciferase reaction using Vibrio harveyi luciferase. The cathodic conversion of oxidized riboflavin 5′‐phosphate (FMN) to its reduced form (FMNH2), on which the kinetics for the overall light‐emitting reaction depend, is followed by the bacterial luciferase reaction. The electrochemical initiation method can be used for both turnover and nonturnover luciferase reactions, depending on the FMN electroreduction methods.
