Thus, this probe should detect transcripts derived from all of the opsin genes we have identified.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Catarrhines are routinely trichromatic due to a gene duplication of the red-greenopsingeneat the base of their lineage, 30 to 40 million years ago.

From theCambridge English Corpus
The one statistically significant difference identified here supports the principle that the nucleotide differences in the region of the opsin genes are responsible for determining cone ratio.
From theCambridge English Corpus
One significant difference between the transgene and the endogenousopsingeneis the implicit onset of opsin expression.
From theCambridge English Corpus
We therefore chose three earlier time points to detect changes inopsingeneexpression that are involved in this process.

From theCambridge English Corpus
This low-sequence similarity and the high stringency in the in situ hybridization procedure make it unlikely that cross hybridization between the different opsin genes occur.
