SUMMARY:Evolution of vertebrate photoreception and retinoid cycle:  Clues 
 from the eye transcriptome of basal vertebrates - Professor Trevor Lamb\, 
 Australian National University\, Canberra
DTSTART:20141014T120000Z
DTEND:20141014T130000Z
UID:TALK54431@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:John Mollon
DESCRIPTION:We have obtained the eye transcriptome for the hagfish\, _Epta
 tretus cirrhatus_\, as well as for several southern hemisphere lamprey spe
 cies\, by high-throughput sequencing and de novo assembly.  Analysis of th
 e phylogenetic trees for a number of components of interest provides clues
  to the evolution of phototransduction\, photoreceptors\, and the retinoid
  cycle in vertebrates.
