This project helps scientists in fields like visual physiology and molecular evolution study opsin proteins. It provides a comprehensive database of opsin gene sequences and their corresponding peak light sensitivity (λmax) phenotypes. Researchers can use this to understand how opsin genotypes relate to their light-sensing properties, feeding into machine learning models to predict λmax from gene sequences.

Use this if you are a vision scientist, molecular biologist, or evolutionary biologist working with opsin genes and need to access curated genotype-phenotype data or train models to predict opsin light sensitivity.

Not ideal if you are a casual user looking for a simple, interactive online tool for opsin λmax prediction, as this primarily offers the underlying data and model training resources.
