Adaptive evolution of the African and Indonesian coelacanths to deep-sea environments.

Gene - 30 Dec 2000

Yokoyama S, Tada T

Abstract excerpt

We have PCR amplified and sequenced the rhodopsin (RH1) and evolutionarily closely related RH2 genes of the Indonesian coelacanth, now referred to as Latimeria menadoensis. When the RH1 and RH2 coding sequences are constructed, expressed in cultured cells, and reconstituted with 11-cis-retinal, the resulting visual pigments have wavelengths of maximal absorption (lambda(max)) of 485 and 479 nm, respectively....
