Availability and occurrence of coelenterazine in a Swedish fjord to maintain Amphiura filiformis bioluminescence

Abstract The bioluminescent European brittle star Amphiura filiformis produces blue light at the arm-spine level thanks to a biochemical reaction involving coelenterazine as substrate and a Renilla-like luciferase as an enzyme. This echinoderm light production depends on a trophic acquisition of the...
