AI Article Synopsis

  • The discovery of bioluminescence by Harvey in 1952 led to Osamu Shimomura winning a Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2008, highlighting its significance in biological research.
  • Recent advancements have developed bioluminescence-based assays for monitoring pollutants and studying diseases in plants and animals, with improvements made through gene modification.
  • Although over 100 bioluminescent species are identified in India, research on their biodiversity and applications remains limited, indicating a need for more study in areas like conservation and biomedical applications.

Article Abstract

The inception of bioluminescence by Harvey (1952) has led to a Nobel Prize to Osamu Shimomura (Chemistry, 2008) in biological research. Consequently, in recent years, bioluminescence-based assays to monitor toxic pollutants as a real-time marker, to study various diseases and their propagation in plants and animals, are developed in many countries. The emission ability of bioluminescence is improved by gene modification, and also, search for novel bioluminescent systems is underway. Over 100 species of organisms belonging to different taxa are known to be luminous in India. However, the diversity and distribution of luminous organisms and their applications are studied scarcely in the Indian scenario. In this context, the present review provides an overview of the current understanding of various bioluminescent organisms, functions, and applications. A detailed checklist of known bioluminescent organisms from India's marine, terrestrial, and freshwater ecosystems is detailed. This review infers that Indian scientists are needed to extend their research on various aspects of luminescent organisms such as biodiversity, genomics, and chemical mechanisms for conservation, ecological, and biomedical applications.
