The identification of the ZtWco-1 gene, a homolog of the blue-light photoreceptor WC-1, suggests that light detection is crucial for the virulence and development of this pathogen[5]. This finding ...

Osaka Metropolitan University researchers have elucidated how a single photoreceptor in the pineal gland of zebrafish detects ...

We see color because photoreceptor cones in our eyes detect light waves corresponding to red, green, and blue, while dimness ...

Researchers have elucidated how a single photoreceptor in the pineal gland of zebrafish detects color. We see color because photoreceptor cones in our eyes detect light waves corresponding to red ...

The train does not have a blue pixel, although it may ... Occasionally, cones, or color photoreceptor cells in the retina that turn light into signals the brain can interpret, can trick the ...

The Scientist: How can too much sunlight damage the eye? Ralph Chou: Light comes into the eye and goes through all the various layers of cells until it reaches the photoreceptors—essentially, the ...

Researchers uncovered how zebrafish detect colors using photoreceptor cells in the pineal gland. The protein parapinopsin 1 ...
