Spatiotemporal specification of human green and red cones
2021-03-31
Abstract excerpt
Trichromacy is unique to primates among mammals, enabled by blue (short/S), green (medium/M), and red (long/L) cones. In humans and Old World monkeys, cones make a poorly understood choice between M and L cone subtype fates. To determine mechanisms specifying M and L cones, we developed an approach to visualize expression of the highly similar M - and L - opsin mRNAs. M - opsin , but not L - opsin , was obs...
