Targeted misexpression of a Drosophila opsin gene leads to altered visual function
Targeted misexpression of a Drosophila opsin gene leads to altered visual function
Drosophila mutants transformed with a chimaeric gene that expresses the ocellar visual pigment in the major class of photoreceptor cells of the retina were used to investigate the properties of this minor pigment. The photoreceptor cells in which this opsin was misexpressed showed new spectral characteristics and physiology.
