我们使用了依赖HCV IRES表达萤火虫荧光素酶的报告基因质粒。
We used a reporter gene plasmid in which firefly luciferase expression is dependent on the HCV IRES.
去年，丘奇的研究团队通过自组装获得了合成核糖体，并产生了荧光素酶，这种蛋白质可以使萤火虫发光。
Though they haven’t published their results yet, last year his team got a synthetic ribosome to self-assemble and produce luciferase, the protein that makes fireflies glow.
