Evolution of human colour vision other two human opsins. Middle Wavelength Sensitive Opsin (Green-sensitive opsin) – Encoded by the OPN1MW gene with a λmax of 530 found in the green region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Short Wavelength Sensitive Opsin (Blue opsin) – Encoded by the OPN1SW gene with a λmax of 430 found in the blue region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
