The firefly luciferase isolated from North American firefly is a 61 KDa monomeric protein that does not require post-translational processing for enzymatic activity.
从北美萤火虫中分离到的萤光酶是一个分子量为61KDa的单体蛋白并且酶的活性不需要翻译后加工。
Both the firefly and Renilla luciferase provide the superior assay characteristics of bioluminescent reporters.
