Testing Hypotheses About Visual Pigments Underlying Deutan Color Vision
A classical theory held that deuteranomaly was caused by the replacement of the normal M cone pigment by an anomalous M pigment, which was spectrally red-shifted. Two assumptions associated with that theory were: (1) that there was a single, fixed L pigment, shared by deuteranomals and normals; (2) and that everyone had two genes for cone pigments on the X-chromosome. Those two assumptions are ...
متن کاملCone spectral sensitivities and color matching
The eye’s optics form an inverted image of the world on the dense layer of light-sensitive photoreceptors that carpet its rear surface. There, the photoreceptors transduce arriving photons into the temporal and spatial patterns of electrical signals that eventually lead to perception. Four types of photoreceptors initiate vision: The rods, more effective at low light levels, provide our nightti...
متن کاملPredicting peak spectral sensitivities of vertebrate cone visual pigments using atomistic molecular simulations
Vision is the dominant sensory modality in many organisms for foraging, predator avoidance, and social behaviors including mate selection. Vertebrate visual perception is initiated when light strikes rod and cone photoreceptors within the neural retina of the eye. Sensitivity to individual colors, i.e., peak spectral sensitivities (λmax) of visual pigments, are a function of the type of chromop...
متن کاملDifferent phosphorylation rates among vertebrate cone visual pigments with different spectral sensitivities.
Cone photoreceptor subtypes having different spectral sensitivities exhibit different recovery kinetics in their photoresponses in some vertebrates. Phosphorylation by G protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK) is essential for the rapid inactivation of light-activated visual pigment, which is the rate-limiting step of the cone photoresponse recovery in salamander. In this study we compared the ra...
متن کاملMultiple Color Matches to Estimate Human Color Vision Sensitivities
A color matching experiment was designed and carried out to estimate human observers’ color matching functions (CMFs). 61 colornormal observers participated in the experiment. Their results were traced back to physiological factors using a mathematical vision model. The experiment time was 15 minutes, which is much faster than previous research aimed at determining color matching functions.
