opn6bl
This is the Xenbase wiki page for the Xenopus genes 'opn6bl. Fee; free to record anything here about these genes a=thata are not recorded elsewhere on Xenbase.
nomenclature changes
18OCT2023
The gene symbol and names for the opsin gens where updated, provisionally, replacing the LOC 100497987, visual pigment-like receptor peropsin with opn6bl, visual pigment-like receptor peropsin 6b like, which combines the X.tropicalis gene /protein name with the homology group assessed for the X.laevis L homeolog, which although thought to be a 'opsin 5' group member, aligns more closely with the opsin 6b group, and is very similar to the Zebrafish opsin 6b.
This provisional naming system is currently under review, and will be submitted to the VGNC for approval & comment.

Xenopus gene names changed, from opn6bl, visual pigment-like receptor peropsin 6b like to opn6b, visual pigment-like receptor peropsin 6b following the McFarland Labs usage, as they are the authority on this group of genes in Xenopus, and the are almost identical to opn6b proteins in zebrafish, so no need for a 'like' suffix. .
