Description
Summary:The luciferase, an important element, is currently being developed as an early detection for cancer biomarker. This study aims to obtain the gene sequence for luciferase and discover the percentage of similarity between the luciferase gene from Diaphanes javanus Gorham and gene bank reference fireflies. The study employed a descriptive analysis method. The results of the isolation, restriction and amplification of the luciferase gene produced a single band and nucleotide readings. The luciferase contig sequence for Diaphanes sp. was compared to the with the gene bank reference sequence. The highest similarity of the luciferase gene in Diaphanes sp was showing high similarity. The similarity rate can help to determine the direction of the development of the Diaphones sp luciferase gene in native species of Indonesia.
