Uncommon opsin’s retinal isomer is involved in mammalian sperm thermotaxis [PDF]

Scientific Reports
In recent years it became apparent that, in mammals, rhodopsin and other opsins, known to act as photosensors in the visual system, are also present in spermatozoa, where they function as highly sensitive thermosensors for thermotaxis.
