Bioluminiscentna circRNA

To almost all of us, when you say "glow-in-the-dark," the first thing that comes to mind aren't even electromagnetic, as in fireflies or lightning bugs, those little insects that glow during warm summer nights. However, there are a number of other microorganisms that also have the ability to produce light. And some of these are even microscopic creatures in bacteria and fungi. This light is, in fact, a type of bioluminescence that they emits. This is due to a special molecule called Lucifer; It enables the creation of a new kind of bioluminescence that scientists just found out exists, made as it is involving a sort of genetic material called circRNA. I will cover this topic in more detail as it is a very cool and interesting one to get into!

Bioluminescent Pathways Unveiled

The abbreviation circRNA means “circular RNA.” Assistant Professor of Biological Chemistry and Biomedical Engineering Michael RustWe often hear about RNA — that this, like DNA is a type of genetic material. In some cases, circRNA is produced by living organisms, such as various fungi that make glowing in the dark. Scientists, such as Dr. Liu Yaohai, have been researching how this works and have already made some progress in understanding the mechanisms behind it. An essential part of this glowing mechanism is the luminescent conversion of luciferin to its oxyluciferin glow state. This transformation is important because it enables the organism to produce light.
