Dinoflagellate luciferase (EC 1.13.12.18, Gonyaulax luciferase) is a specific luciferase, an enzyme with systematic name dinoflagellate-luciferin:oxygen 132-oxidoreductase.[1][2][3][4][5][6] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

dinoflagellate luciferin + O2 oxidized dinoflagellate luciferin + H2O + hnu

Dinoflagellate luciferase is a single protein with three luciferase domains.
