Biological Activity

[Description]:

pyCTZ (Pyridyl CTZ), a pyridyl Coelenterazine (CTZ) analog, and is an ATP-independent pyridyl substrate of LumiLuc luciferase. pyCTZ generates strong blue bioluminescence in the presence of luciferases. pyCTZ can be used for aequorin-based calcium sensing[1].

[In Vitro]

pyCTZ is comparable to native CTZ for bioluminescence intensity when pairs with aequorin[1].
