Extraordinary diversity of chemosensory receptor gene repertoires among vertebrates.

Results and problems in cell differentiation - 1 Jan 2009

Shi P, Zhang J

Abstract excerpt

Chemosensation (smell and taste) is important to the survival and reproduction of vertebrates and is mediated by specific bindings of odorants, pheromones, and tastants by chemoreceptors that are encoded by several large gene families. This review summarizes recent comparative genomic and evolutionary studies of vertebrate chemoreceptor genes. It focuses on the remarkable diversity of chemoreceptor gene...
