Coelenterazine is a substrate of various luciferases such as Renilla luciferase (Rluc) and Gaussia luciferase (Gluc), and is also a cofactor of aequorin. It is widely used and can be used for detection Calcium concentration in living cells, gene reporter assays, BRET (Bioluminescence Resonance Energy Transfer) studies, ELISA, HTS, and chemiluminescence detection of ROS levels in tissues or cells[1].
In vitro, coelenterazine enabled the dynamic monitoring of the RAW 264.7 cell oxidative burst [2].Coelenterazine chemiluminescence did not depend on the activity of cell-derived myeloperoxidase.It is a very sensitive and specific superoxide anion chemiluminescent probe[3]. Coelenterazine is a more reliable probe, although susceptible to storage-dependent high background chemiluminescence, but does not require prereductio[4].
In vivo, there were early, preclinical, changes in the localization and magnitude of coelenterazine chemiluminescent foci[2]. Commercially available coelenterazine（soluble in DMSO） is a sensitive substrate for in vivo bioluminescence imaging of coelenterazine luciferase[5].

Coelenterazine-dependent luciferases
Bioluminescence is a widespread natural phenomenon. Luminous organisms are found among bacteria, fungi, protozoa, coelenterates, worms, molluscs, insects, and fish. Studies on bioluminescent systems of various organisms have revealed an interesting feature - the mechanisms underlying visible light emission are considerably different in representatives of different taxa despite the same final result of this biochemical process. Among the several substrates of bioluminescent reactions identified in marine luminous organisms, the most commonly used are imidazopyrazinone derivatives such as coelenterazine and Cypridina luciferin. Although the substrate used is the same, bioluminescent proteins that catalyze light emitting reactions in taxonomically remote luminous organisms do not show similarity either in amino acid sequences or in spatial structures. In this review, we consider luciferases of various luminous organisms that use coelenterazine or Cypridina luciferin as a substrate, as well as modifications of these proteins that improve their physicochemical and bioluminescent properties and therefore their applicability in bioluminescence imaging in vivo.
Coelenterazine sulfotransferase from Renilla muelleri
The luciferin sulfokinase (coelenterazine sulfotransferase) of Renilla was previously reported to activate the storage form, luciferyl sulfate (coelenterazine sulfate) to luciferin (coelenterazine), the substrate for the luciferase bioluminescence reaction. The gene coding for the coelenterazine sulfotransferase has not been identified. Here we used a combined proteomic/transcriptomic approach to identify and clone the sulfotransferase cDNA. Multiple isoforms of coelenterazine sulfotransferase were identified from the anthozoan Renilla muelleri by intersecting its transcriptome with the LC-MS/MS derived peptide sequences of coelenterazine sulfotransferase purified from Renilla. Two of the isoforms were expressed in E. coli, purified, and partially characterized. The encoded enzymes display sulfotransferase activity that is comparable to that of the native sulfotransferase isolated from Renilla reniformis that was reported in 1970. The bioluminescent assay for sensitive detection of 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphate (PAP) using the recombinant sulfotransferase is demonstrated.
Coelenterazine-Dependent Luciferases as a Powerful Analytical Tool for Research and Biomedical Applications
: The functioning of bioluminescent systems in most of the known marine organisms is based on the oxidation reaction of the same substrate-coelenterazine (CTZ), catalyzed by luciferase. Despite the diversity in structures and the functioning mechanisms, these enzymes can be united into a common group called CTZ-dependent luciferases. Among these, there are two sharply different types of the system organization-Ca2+-regulated photoproteins and luciferases themselves that function in accordance with the classical enzyme-substrate kinetics. Along with deep and comprehensive fundamental research on these systems, approaches and methods of their practical use as highly sensitive reporters in analytics have been developed. The research aiming at the creation of artificial luciferases and synthetic CTZ analogues with new unique properties has led to the development of new experimental analytical methods based on them. The commercial availability of many ready-to-use assay systems based on CTZ-dependent luciferases is also important when choosing them by first-time-users. The development of analytical methods based on these bioluminescent systems is currently booming. The bioluminescent systems under consideration were successfully applied in various biological research areas, which confirms them to be a powerful analytical tool. In this review, we consider the main directions, results, and achievements in research involving these luciferases.
C-Series Coelenterazine-Driven Bioluminescence Signature Imaging
The present study introduces a unique BL signature imaging system with novel CTZ analogues named "C-series." Nine kinds of C-series CTZ analogues were first synthesized, and BL intensity patterns and spectra were then examined according to the marine luciferases. The results show that the four CTZ analogues named C3, C4, C6, and C7, individually or collectively luminesce with completely distinctive BL spectral signatures and intensity patterns according to the luciferases: Renilla luciferase (RLuc), NanoLuc, and artificial luciferase (ALuc). The signatural reporters were multiplexed into a multi-reporter system comprising RLuc8.6-535SG and ALuc16. The usefulness of the signatural reporters was further determined with a multi-probe system that consists of two single-chain probes embedding RLuc8 and ALuc23. This study is a great addition to the study of conventional bioassays with a unique methodology, and for the specification of each signal in a single- or multi-reporter system using unique BL signatures and patterns of reporter luciferases.
Synthetic Coelenterazine Derivatives and Their Application for Bioluminescence Imaging
Bioluminescence (BL), the emission light resulting from the enzyme-catalyzed oxidative reaction, is a powerful imaging modality for monitoring biological phenomena both in vitro and in vivo. Coelenterazine (CTZ), the known widespread luciferin found in bioluminescent organisms, develops bioluminescence imaging (BLI). Here, we describe an approach to synthesize a series of novel CTZ derivatives for diversifying the toolbox of the BL substrates. Furthermore, we exemplify some of them display excellent BL signals in vitro and in vivo, and thus should be noted as one of the ideal substrates for in vivo BLI compared with a well-known conventional substrate, DeepBlueC.
