Species specificity in major urinary proteins by parallel evolution.

PloS one - 25 Sept 2008

Logan Darren W, Marton Tobias F, Stowers Lisa

Abstract excerpt

Species-specific chemosignals, pheromones, regulate social behaviors such as aggression, mating, pup-suckling, territory establishment, and dominance. The identity of these cues remains mostly undetermined and few mammalian pheromones have been identified. Genetically-encoded pheromones are expected to exhibit several different mechanisms for coding 1) diversity, to enable the signaling of multiple behaviors, 2)...
