Coelenteramine is a metabolic product of the bioluminescent reactions in organisms that utilize coelenterazine. It was first isolated from Aequorea victoria along with coelenteramide after coelenterates were stimulated to emit light.{{cite journal | doi = 10.1073/pnas.72.4.1546 | author = Shimomura O, Johnson FH | title = Chemical Nature of Bioluminescence Systems in Coelenterates | journal = PNAS USA | volume = 72 | pages = 1546–1549 | year = 1975 | pmid = 236561 | issue = 4 | pmc = 432574| doi-access = free }}
