| Bioactivity | pyCTZ (Pyridyl CTZ) TFA, a pyridyl Coelenterazine (CTZ) analog, and is an ATP-independent pyridyl substrate of LumiLuc luciferase. pyCTZ TFA generates strong blue bioluminescence in the presence of luciferases. pyCTZ TFA can be used for aequorin-based calcium sensing[1]. |
| Invitro | pyCTZ TFA is comparable to native CTZ for bioluminescence intensity when pairs with aequorin[1]. |
