Opsin evolution: Melanopsin gene loss
Introduction to Melanopsin Evolution
(more shortly)
Melanopsin MEL1 retention with exon loss in mammals
Melanopsin is an ancient rhabodomeric Gq opsin that persists all examined extant deuterostomes (which otherwise use ciliary opsins and the peropsin/neuropsin/RGR opsins). The melanopsins in earlier diverging clades are remarkable for their greatly extended C-terminal extension whose location is presumably cytoplasmic and whose function is quite unknown. This extenstion has undergone rapid change in post-frog species such as birds and lizards resulting in novel exons, diminished distal homology -- and in mammals, complete loss of terminal exons and any functionality that they provided.
Less drastic length alterations occur at the amino terminus as well and indels are far more common than in other opsin families. This raises questions about what lies behind these dramatic shifts. The recent determination of the structure of squid melanopsin -- with a big role for its cytoplasmic tail -- won't be replicated in non-cephalopod melanopsins because conservation is observed only to a proline 8 of 127 residue past the FR motif. Even central conservation rapidly drops below 45% even within other lophotrochozoans. Consequently the 25 angstrom cytoplasmic knob of squid melanopsin has no value to annotation transfer and probably has very little to do with Galpha signaling specificity.
The comparative genomics of a small deletion in exon 4 of bat melanopsin is shown below; its functional significance for the DRY second cytoplasmic loop (much less photoreception) is unknown. The residue otherwise is quite well conserved within mammals and restricted to A, S, or T in all vertebrate melanopsins.

Melanopsin MEL2 gene loss in mammals
A paralogous second melanopsin in nonmammalian vertebrates was found quite recently by Bellingham et al. It is still unclear whether this gene is present in chondrichthyes or lamprey because of the limited coverage of current assemblies. This evidently arose prior to divergence of telost fish by a segmental duplication because some evidence of flanking synteny survives. It cannot have arisen by the whole genome duplication in fish because that would not have descended to frog, lizards, and birds. Instead all whole genomic duplication copies of fish melanopsins were lost. No sign of this second gene can be found in platypus, marsupials, or placental mammals -- yet another longstanding functional opsin gene lost in this clade.
Transmembrane, DRY loop, and Schiff base regions of human MEL1 are very similar to lizard MEL2: LGTVILLVGLTGMLGNLTVIY CVLVIGSIGITGNLLVLYAFY DRYLVITRPLATFGVASKRR KASAIHNPIIYAITHPKYR FIINLAVSDFLMSFTQAPVFF FIMNLAASDFLMSATQAPICF DRYCVITKPLQSIKRSSKKR KASAIYNPIIYAIIHPRYR FYAFCGALFGISSMITLTAIA FYVFCGALFGITSMMTLLAIS FVLLGVWLYALAWSLPPFFGW IIIAFVWLYSLGWSVCPLFGW LCCFVFFLPLLIIIYCYIFIF FVFFIPLIIIFHCYLFMFLAI IMLLVILLFVLSWAPYSAVAL IAFVAIVVFVLSWSPYACVTL SVPAVIAKASAIHNPIIYAIT SVPAVIAKASAIYNPIIYAII
