Identity of the Emitter in the Bacterial Luciferase Luminescence Reaction:  Binding and Fluorescence Quantum Yield Studies of 5-Decyl-4a-hydroxy-4a,5-dihydroriboflavin-5‘-phosphate as a Model

The excited state of 4a-hydroxy-4a,5-dihydroFMN has been postulated to be the emitter in the bacterial bioluminescence reaction. However, while the bioluminescence quantum yield of the luciferase emitter is about 0.16, chemiluminescence and fluorescence quantum yields of earlier flavin models mimick...
