The molecular biology of olfactory perception

1998-02-01

Abstract excerpt

This review discusses the anatomy of human odorant reception, with particular reference to the seven-helical transmembrane-protein superfamily of olfactory receptors, the concept of a novel multigene olfactory-receptor family, the location of the olfactory-receptor genes in the human genome and the characterization of the receptor proteins by cloning and overexpression. It then turns to the evidence for secondary...
