Target Information
In felines, long-wave-sensitive opsin 1 (OPN1LW) is a G-protein coupled receptor that encodes a long-wave-sensitive photopigment in cone cells, responsible for perceiving yellow-green light. This protein is essential for color vision and vision in non-dim light conditions. Mutations in the OPN1LW gene can lead to color vision deficiencies.
