| 1. | Rhabdomeric opsins are attached to light-gathering organelles called rhabdomeres.
|
| 2. | Proteins known as opsins form the crux of the photosensitive proteins.
|
| 3. | Opsins are members of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily.
|
| 4. | The protein has the canonical features of a photoreceptive opsin protein.
|
| 5. | RGR-opsin comes in different isoforms produced by alternative splicing.
|
| 6. | Type II visual opsins are traditionally classified as either ciliary or rhabdomeric.
|
| 7. | That binds to a protein called opsin in the eye.
|
| 8. | The three opsins there mediate phototaxis all the same way via depolarization,
|
| 9. | Atypical in vertebrates, melanopsin functionally resembles invertebrate opsins.
|
| 10. | Vertebrate visual opsins are a subset of C-opsins ( ciliary ).
