Type: | Family | Name: | Opsin lateral eye type |
Description: | Opsins are the photoreceptors of animal retinas: vertebrate rhodopsin is found in rod cells and mediates scotopic vision; red, green and blueopsins are found in cone cells and mediate photopic vision. The opsins from the lateral eyes and median ocelli of the horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus, are likely to be the visible-wavelength rhodopsins in this animal []. Inthe lateral eye, expression of the opsin gene is restricted to the photoreceptor cells of the ommatidia []. Limulus opsins, and closely-relatedcrayfish, mantid and honeybee rhodopsins, are most similar to the opsin from the R1-6 photoreceptors of flies. | Short Name: | Opsin_lateye |
