Fasick et al. (2019) recently reported their analysis on whale shark opsins and claimed, without any firm ground, that our previous study on the whale shark rhodopsin (the product of the RHO gene, sometimes also called an Rh1 gene) (Hara et al., 2018) was not performed on the rhodopsin but on the peropsin (product of RRH gene).We have confirmed that we analyzed the product of the rhodopsin gene (Rhity0007829) that is phylogenetically categorized confidently in the clade of RHO (Supplementary Figure 8a of Hara et al., 2018) as described explicitly in our previous publication.
期刊介绍:
Visual Neuroscience is an international journal devoted to the publication of experimental and theoretical research on biological mechanisms of vision. A major goal of publication is to bring together in one journal a broad range of studies that reflect the diversity and originality of all aspects of neuroscience research relating to the visual system. Contributions may address molecular, cellular or systems-level processes in either vertebrate or invertebrate species. The journal publishes work based on a wide range of technical approaches, including molecular genetics, anatomy, physiology, psychophysics and imaging, and utilizing comparative, developmental, theoretical or computational approaches to understand the biology of vision and visuo-motor control. The journal also publishes research seeking to understand disorders of the visual system and strategies for restoring vision. Studies based exclusively on clinical, psychophysiological or behavioral data are welcomed, provided that they address questions concerning neural mechanisms of vision or provide insight into visual dysfunction.
