Cell permeable aequorin luminophore that acts as a sensitive and specific chemiluminescence probe of the superoxide anion. Used for detecting changes in intracellular Ca2+ in cells that have been transfected with apoaequorin cDNA.

A light-emitting biomolecule that serves as a substrate for luciferases or constituent of photoproteins;,oxidation to coelenteramide is accompanied by emission of blue light (emission maximum = 460-470 nm); used in BRET studies and to detect changes in calcium level and redox status.
