Functional characterization of odor responses and gene expression changes in olfactory co-receptor mutants in <i>Drosophila</i>
2021-06-18
Abstract excerpt
Two large families of olfactory receptors, the Odorant Receptors (ORs) and the Ionotropic Receptors (IRs), mediate responses to most odors in the insect olfactory system. Individual odor binding “tuning” OR receptors are expressed by olfactory neurons in basiconic and trichoid sensilla and require the co-receptor Orco to function. The situation for IRs is more complex. Different tuning IR receptors are expressed b...
