Functional characterisation of key residues in the photopigment melanopsin
<p>Melanopsin (<em>Opn4</em>) is the opsin photopigment of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs). It has a conserved opsin structure and activation mechanism, yet demonstrates unusual functional properties that suggest it will possess unique structure-functio...
