Under pressure: Evolutionary trade-offs shape the single visual opsin of deep-sea octopods

This study investigates how the single visual opsin in deep-sea octopods evolves across different light environments, finding specific amino acid substitutions that alter spectral sensitivity and structural properties to adapt to pressure and light conditions.
