A single enhancer regulating the differential expression of duplicated red-sensitive opsin genes in zebrafish.
A fundamental step in the evolution of the visual system is the gene duplication of visual opsins and differentiation between the duplicates in absorption spectra and expression pattern in the retina. However, our understanding of the mechanism of expression differentiation is far behind that of spe...
