In frontier life science research, the luciferase reporter gene system has consistently served as an "indicator light," unveiling the inner mysteries of cells. It is extensively applied in core areas such as signaling pathway analysis, transcriptional regulation studies, receptor function exploration, and high-throughput drug screening. The principle lies in the fact that the intracellular expression level of luciferase can be precisely quantified by measuring the intensity of cold light generated through substrate catalysis, thereby directly reflecting the activity level of the target gene.
