The evolutionary relationship between microbial rhodopsins and metazoan rhodopsins.

TheScientificWorldJournal - 1 Jan 2013

Shen Libing, Chen Chao, Zheng Hongxiang, Jin Li

Abstract excerpt

Rhodopsins are photoreceptive proteins with seven-transmembrane alpha-helices and a covalently bound retinal. Based on their protein sequences, rhodopsins can be classified into microbial rhodopsins and metazoan rhodopsins. Because there is no clearly detectable sequence identity between these two groups, their evolutionary relationship was difficult to decide. Through ancestral state inference, we found that...
