How Fireflies Transformed Molecular Biology
How did fireflies change the face of modern science?
In this second part of our bioluminescence series, we explore how luciferase and luciferin helped researchers develop bioluminescent assaysโtransforming how we study gene activity, energy metabolism and protein synthesis.
Today, this light-driven technology continues to support scientific discovery in cancer research, drug development and beyond.
From natureโs glow to the front lines of biomedical researchโdiscover the science behind the signal.
