Hi all,
We have cloned the apoaequorin gene from a kind of jellyfish and expressed it in E.coli, now I want to detect its bioluminescent activity, but I don't know if I can use firefly luciferin instead of coelenterate luciferin, because I cannot find any commercial resources for the coelenterate luciferin. Does anyone have some suggestion about it? Any advice would be very appreciated.

Thanks in Advance
