Confocal image of the relative distribution of the Mel1b melatonin receptor (green) and the ON bipolar cell marker guanine nucleotide binding protein alpha, G o α (red) in the retina of Xenopus laevis . Mel1b receptor immunoreactivity is absent from the cell bodies of ON bipolar cells, identifying the Mel1b receptorimmunoreactive bipolar cells as OFF bipolar cells.
