Cryptochrome expression in avian UV cones: revisiting the role of CRY1 as magnetoreceptor
Abstract Cryptochromes (CRY) have been proposed as putative magnetoreceptors in vertebrates. Localisation of CRY1 in the UV cones in the retinas of birds suggested that it could be the candidate magnetoreceptor. However, recent findings argue against this possibility. CRY1 is a type II cryptochrome,...
