Journal Article
Sun, X., Tang, X., Wang, Q., Chen, P., Hill, P., Fang, B., & Xu, C. (2018). Fusion expression of bifunctional enzyme complex for luciferin-recycling to enhance the luminescence imaging. Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B: Biology, 185, 66-72. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2018.05.024

Firefly luciferase (Fluc) has been widely used as a bioluminescent monitor. The ATP linear correlation and exogenous luciferin requirement make it useful in most of current imaging systems. However, the utility of this reporter was still limited by t... Read More about Fusion expression of bifunctional enzyme complex for luciferin-recycling to enhance the luminescence imaging.

Reconstructing promoter activity from Lux bioluminescent reporters (2017)
Journal Article
Iqbal, M., Doherty, N., Page, A. M., Qazi, S. N., Ajmera, I., Lund, P. A., …Stekel, D. J. (2017). Reconstructing promoter activity from Lux bioluminescent reporters. PLoS Computational Biology, 13(9), Article e1005731. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1005731

The bacterial Lux system is used as a gene expression reporter. It is fast, sensitive and non-destructive, enabling high frequency measurements. Originally developed for bacterial cells, it has also been adapted for eukaryotic cells, and can be used... Read More about Reconstructing promoter activity from Lux bioluminescent reporters.

The dynamic balance of import and export of zinc in Escherichia coli suggests a heterogeneous population response to stress (2015)
Journal Article
Takahashi, H., Oshima, T., Hobman, J. L., Doherty, N., Clayton, S. R., Iqbal, M., …Stekel, D. J. (2015). The dynamic balance of import and export of zinc in Escherichia coli suggests a heterogeneous population response to stress. Interface, 12(106), Article 20150069. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsif.2015.0069

Zinc is essential for life, but toxic in excess. Thus all cells must control their internal zinc concentration. We used a systems approach, alternating rounds of experiments and models, to further elucidate the zinc control systems in Escherichia col...
