1. Brazilian Bioluminescent Beetles: Reflections on Catching Glimpses of Light in the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado
ABSTRACT Bioluminescence - visible and cold light emission by living organisms - is a worldwide phenomenon, reported in terrestrial and marine environments since ancient times. Light emission from microorganisms, fungi, plants and animals may have arisen as an evolutionary response against oxygen toxicity and was appropriated for sexual attraction, predation

2. Bioluminescência de fungos: distribuição, função e mecanismo de emissão de luz
The emission of light by living organisms, bioluminescence, has been studied since the nineteenth century. However, some bioluminescent systems, such as fungi, remain poorly understood. The emitter, the two enzymes involved, and the reaction mechanism have not yet been unraveled. Moreover, the ecological role and evolutionary significance for fungal luminesc

3. Estresse oxidativo e bioluminescência nos fungos Gerronema viridilucens e Mycena lucentipes / Oxidative stress and bioluminescence in the fungi Gerronema viridilucens and Mycena lucentipes
Espécies reativas de oxigênio (EROs) são produzidas normalmente durante o metabolismo de organismos aeróbios. Fungos degradadores de lignina geram estas espécies também no processo de degradação da lignina. As espécies de fungos bioluminescentes Gerronema viridilucens e Mycena lucentipes foram utilizadas para se estabelecer possível dependência en

4. Mechanistic study on fungi bioluminescence / Estudo mecanístico da bioluminescência de fungos
Esta tese descreve como é possível obter emissão de luz in vitro enzimaticamente, a partir de extratos quente e frio de diferentes espécies de fungos bioluminescentes, o que indica também um mecanismo comum de bioluminescência em todos esses organismos. Dados cinéticos sugerem um mecanismo enzimático em duas etapas e corroboram a hipótese enzimátic

5. Bioluminescence for USP sterility testing of pharmaceutical suspension products.
Bioluminescence measurement significantly improved the accuracy, sensitivity, precision, and reliability of the current visual endpoint determination for the USP sterility test and eliminated the day 7 transfer/dilution step required for testing suspension products. Thirteen strains of bacteria and fungi (representing potential contaminants in sterile produc

6. Assessment of Photodynamic Destruction of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes by Using ATP Bioluminescence
Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy was shown to be effective against a wide range of bacterial cells, as well as for fungi, yeasts, and viruses. It was shown previously that photodestruction of yeast cells treated with photosensitizers resulted in cell destruction and leakage of ATP. Three photosensitizers were used in this study: tetra(N-methyl-4-pyridyl)po

7. Lipopeptide Production in Pseudomonas sp. Strain DSS73 Is Regulated by Components of Sugar Beet Seed Exudate via the Gac Two-Component Regulatory System
Pseudomonas sp. strain DSS73 isolated from the sugar beet rhizosphere produces the cyclic lipopeptide amphisin, which inhibits the growth of plant-pathogenic fungi. By Tn5::luxAB mutagenesis, we obtained two nonproducing mutant strains, DSS73-15C2 and DSS73-12H8. The gene interrupted by the transposon in strain DSS73-15C2 (amsY) encoded a protein with homolo
