Functional identification of an opsin kinase underlying inactivation of the pineal bistable opsin parapinopsin in zebrafish

Abstract In the pineal organ of zebrafish larvae, the bistable opsin parapinopsin alone generates color opponency between UV and visible light. Our previous study suggested that dark inactivation of the parapinopsin photoproduct, which activates G-proteins, is important for the regulation of the amo...
