A luciferin, that is a light-producing molecule, used by marine organisms from eight phyla, from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria to shrimp, squid and copepods: as it oxidises it gives off blue light. It was isolated in the mid-1970s and is named after the former phylum Coelenterata. This family brings together the active ingredient.
