Beschreibung:
A bovine rhodopsin complementary DNA probe was used to detect homologous visual pigment genes in a variety of species. Under stringent DNA hybridization conditions, genomic DNA from most vertebrate species carried a single homologous fragment. Additional homologies were detected in some vertebrates by reducing the hybridization stringency. Homologous fragments were also detected in DNA isolated from invertebrate species, a unicellular alga, and an archaebacterium; many of these fragments were homologous to a Drosophila opsin probe. These results suggest that photosensory pigments in a wide variety of species arose from a common precursor.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Martin, R L -- Wood, C -- Baehr, W -- Applebury, M L -- EY04801/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- EY07008/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1986 Jun 6;232(4755):1266-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3010467" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
