Abstract

Main characteristics of the various types of aequorin presently available for measuring cellular Ca 2+, i.e. heterogeneous aequorin, isoaequorins, recombinant aequorin, fluorescein-labeled aequorin and semi-synthetic aequorins, are summarized. Basic techniques of preparing and handling the solutions of those aequorins for measuring Ca 2+, including such techniques as concentrating aequorin solutions, freeze-drying, changing buffer composition, and the regeneration of active aequorin, are described.
