The ascidian homolog of the vertebrate homeobox gene Rx is essential for ocellus development and function

, 2006
The tadpole larvae prosencephalon of the ascidian Ciona intestinalis contains a single large ventricle, along the inner walls of which lie two sensory organs: the otolith (a gravity-sensing organ) and the ocellus (a photo-sensing organ composed of a ...

Intersegmental fusion in vertebrate rod photoreceptors. Rod cell structure revisited.

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science, 1995
To determine the cause of intersegmental fusion--a fusion between the plasma membranes of the inner and outer segments--in vertebrate rod cells.Rod cells from adult salamander, frog, and rat retinas were examined with electron microscopy. The fine structure of fusion and the frequency of occurrence were assessed in three types of preparations (intact ...

Distribution of guanylate cyclase within photoreceptor outer segments

, 1996
application/pdfGuanylate cyclases play an essential role in the recovery of vertebrate photoreceptor cells after light activation. Here, we have investigated how one such guanylate cyclase, RetGC-1, is distributed within light- and dark-adapted rod ...
