Owenia fusiformis – a basally branching annelid suitable for studying ancestral features of annelid neural development
Helm, Conrad; Vöcking, Oliver; Kourtesis, Ioannis; Hausen, Harald (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-06-16)Background Comparative investigations on bilaterian neurogenesis shed light on conserved developmental mechanisms across taxa. With respect to annelids, most studies focus on taxa deeply nested within the annelid tree, ... -
Posterior eyespots in larval chitons have a molecular identity similar to anterior cerebral eyes in other bilaterians
Hausen, Harald; Vöcking, Oliver; Kourtesis, Ioannis (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-12-22)Background: Development of cerebral eyes is generally based on fine-tuned networks and closely intertwined with the formation of brain and head. Consistently and best studied in insects and vertebrates, many signaling ... -
The rhodopsin-retinochrome system for retinal re-isomerization predates the origin of cephalopod eyes
Vöcking, Oliver; Leclère, Lucas; Hausen, Harald (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-29)Background: The process of photoreception in most animals depends on the light induced isomerization of the chromophore retinal, bound to rhodopsin. To re-use retinal, the all-trans-retinal form needs to be re-isomerized ...
