Phylogenetic analysis and ontogenetic changes in the cone opsins of the western mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis).
To convert external light into internal neural signal, vertebrates rely on a special group of proteins, the visual opsins. Four of the five types of visual opsins-short-wavelength sensitive 1 (Sws1), short-wavelength sensitive 2 (Sws2), medium-wavelength sensitive (Rh2), and long-wavelength sensitiv...
