Coelenterazine h hydrochloride
Based on 3 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Coelenterazine h (2-Deoxycoelenterazine) hydrochloride, a coelenterazine derivative, is a luminescent substrate for RLuc8. Coelenterazine h hydrochloride is more sensitive to Ca2+, thus providing a valuable tool for measuring small changes in Ca2+ concentrations (Ex/Em = 437/466 nm).

Biological Activity
Coelenterazine h (1-10 μM) hydrochloride can be used as the luminescent substrate for RLuc8[4].
In the measurements of Ca2+ binding kinetics of BRAC, emission intensity of Venus (530 nm) from BRAC are monitored at 1 kHz just after rapid mixing of 5 nM BRAC protein with 20 μM coelenterazine-h hydrochloride in various concentration of Ca2+ buffer[4].
Guide (Following is our recommended protocol. This protocol only provides a guideline, and should be modified according to your specific needs).
1. Solution preparation[4]
1.1 Preparation of stock solution
Solvent: methanol or ethanol
Concentration: 10 mM (optimized according to the experiment).
1.2 Preparation of working solution
Dilute to 10 μM with PBS or cell culture medium (optimized according to the experiment).
Note: The stock solution and working solution should be prepared and used immediately. Keep it away from light.
2. Cell staining
2.1 Hela cells are transfected with BRAC or G5A.
2.2 Add 10 μM Coelenterazine h hydrochloride into the cell plate.
2.3 Incubate the dye-loading plate in a cell incubator for 1-4 h (optimized according to the experiment).
2.4 Fluorescence microscopy detection (Ex/Em = 437/466 nm).
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

A. tumefaciens strains carrying NlucN-FLAG, along with avrRpt2-HA-HiBiT or avrPto-HA-HiBiT, were infiltrated into the leaves. Thirty hours after infiltration, leaves discs were collected and incubated with Coelenterazine h (10 µM; 10 min) in a 96-well plate, then the luminescence was monitored using EnSpire Multimode Plate Reader.

Leaves of transgenic A. thaliana plants expressing NlucN were infiltrated with H2O or 1 μM flg22. 24 hours after first infiltration, indicated bacteria (OD600 = 0.1) was infiltrated to the same leaves. Leaf discs were harvested 9 h later, and incubated with Coelenterazine h (10 µM; 10 min) in a 96-well plate, then the luminescence was monitored using EnSpire Multimode Plate Reader.

Effector secretion was induced in vitro. Culture supernatants were collected, incubated with Coelenterazine h (10 μM; 10 min) and NlucN-His, and measured for luminescence. Total protein was analyzed by immunoblot using anti-AvrPto and anti-HA antibodies to detect the accumulation of AvrPto-HiBiT and AvrRpt2-HA-HiBiT. Signal-to-noise ratio was shown.
