How did vertebrate opsins 👁️diversify? - putting the last pieces of the puzzle together

Gene linkage in a jawless vertebrate living in a distant corner of the world shed light on a big evolutionary picture of the light-sensing ☀ system we all rely on. https://t.co/jEBcSEZOgC

Loving deep-sea fish and molecular evolution?
We're hiring!:-) Looking for a motivated PhD student to join us to study evolution of vision & to explore limits of vertebrate eye in extreme environment. Deadline 15th March. Thanks for applying and sharing!

I am more than happy to share our preprint about the evolution of non-visual and visual opsins in fishes, fruit of a collaboration between the Salzburger lab (@fogg_lily , @WSalzburger ) and Fabio Cortesi (@FCortesi).

✨Read how a team of researchers led by David Lagman @lanternshark uncovered how #Oikopleura dioica repurposed ancient cellular machinery to build its complex, food-filtering "house." @AppyGenetics @mchlab @UiB @SocDevBio

✨Huge congratulations to David Lagman @lanternshark with Anthony Leon @Bio_Antho, Nadia Cieminska @nadia24075483, Wei Deng, Marios Chatzigeorgiou @mchlab, Simon Henriet, and Daniel Chourrout @AppyGenetics for their latest publication in Developmental Biology @SocDevBio! 👏 @UiB

[David Lagman @lanternshark]

@CarineLG29 @MSarsCentre @AppyGenetics Thanks Carine!

[David Lagman @lanternshark]

Finally! The work I did during my postdoc Bergen @MSarsCentre in the @AppyGenetics lab out in Developmental Biology! Great job everyone involved! https://t.co/0jxv7sDUCB

[David Lagman @lanternshark]

@Bio_Antho The result of a great collaboration!

[David Lagman @lanternshark]

@mchlab @AppyGenetics Thank you for your contribution it really helped with the story!

[Chourrout lab @AppyGenetics]

We are so happy to see @lanternshark's work finally published! By using a wide set of techniques (CRISPR, scRNA-seq, ISH, FISH, IF), we show the importance of Pax3/7b+ cells in the formation of the house in O. dioica.

@OceaneTourniere @MSarsCentre @AppyGenetics Thanks!

[Antho Leon 🇵🇪 @Bio_Antho]

Feel free to visit my poster P057 at #EED2024. The work was done in collaboration with @lanternshark at @MSarsCentre. Peace out ✌️

[Chatzigeorgiou lab @mchlab]

New preprint from the lab: https://t.co/a1kv2XEMfC . @ZonglaiL @HoyerJorgen show that members of the evolutionarily conserved #Anoctamin superfamily modulate Ciona metamorphosis rates in response to mechanical & chemical inputs. @UiB @MSarsCentre

[Chourrout lab @AppyGenetics]

Our lab engineer @Bio_Antho had the opportunity to show his results on scRNAseq analysis of O. dioica. His collaboration w/ @lanternshark at @MSarsCentre is helping our team to investigate the origin and divergence of lineage-specific cell types in larvaceans @OISTedu @UiB

[Chourrout lab @AppyGenetics]

Our engineer @aaasjord has been in charge of the appendicularian facility (Appypark) at @MSarsCentre for many years. Now she is sharing her experience with our colleagues from @OISTedu @luslab @evodevogenomeUB and learning about the different cryptospecies of O. dioica in Okinawa

[Chourrout lab @AppyGenetics]

Postdoc #SimonHenriet does not fear working in non - conventional biological models. He is the first one to sequence, analyze and uncover the mysteries of Fritillaria borealis, a larvacean with striking genomic features. @MSarsCentre @OISTedu

[Chourrout lab @AppyGenetics]

We are so proud of our postdoc @maxiaofei320 who is uncovering the role of Hox proteins in O. dioica - Norway. CRISPR-Cas9 mutants, generated in collaboration with @CarineLG29, exhibit striking phenotypes during development.

@Bio_Antho Looks nice and warm, not at all yealous haha
