Análise genética dos pigmentos visuais da Tartaruga-de-Orelha-Vermelha, Trachemys scriptaelegans (Testudine, Emydidae)
Summary:
This paper discusses the genetic analysis of visual pigments in the red-eared turtle, Trachemys scripta elegans, and predicts the maximum wavelength of opsins based on amino acid sequence and computational models.
Categories
- Eye health: The paper discusses the structure and function of the eye, specifically focusing on the role of photoreceptors in capturing and processing light information.
