Fig. 2

The retinal-binding domain of scaphopod Go-opsin lacks the highly conserved lysine K296. Alignment of representative sequences from Ramirez et al. [8] highlight conserved motifs as per Vöcking et al. [18]. The highly conserved lysine (K) at position 296 is absent from placozoan opsins (=‘placopsins’) and from aen-Go-opsin
