Evolution and functional characterisation of melanopsins in a deep-sea chimaera (elephant shark, Callorhinchus milii)
Non-visual photoreception in mammals is primarily mediated by two splice variants that derive from a single melanopsin (OPN4M) gene, whose expression is restricted to a subset of retinal ganglion cells. Physiologically, this sensory system regulates the photoentrainment of many biological rhythms, s...
