Abstract: Aequorin is the calcium-activated photoprotein responsible for bioluminescence in certain jellyfish, and it has long been employed as a calcium sensor in laboratory work. The tertiary structure of aequorin, now published, provides insights into bioluminescence and hints as to future use of the protein in experiments.
