Multiple opsins in a reef-building coral, Acropora millepora
Abstract Opsins, light-sensitive G protein-coupled receptors, have been identified in corals but their properties are largely unknown. Here, we identified six opsin genes (acropsins 1–6) from a coral species Acropora millepora, including three novel opsins (acropsins 4–6), and successfully character...
