The proton and metal binding sites responsible for the pH-dependent green-red bioluminescence color tuning in firefly luciferases

Firefly luciferases produce yellow-green light under physiological and alkaline conditions, however at acidic pH, higher temperatures or in the presence of heavy metals the color changes to red, a property called pH-sensitivity. Despite many decades of studies, the proton and metal binding sites res...
