Abstract:
A novel multigene family has been identified that is likely to encode odorant receptors on olfactory sensory neurons. Further studies on this gene family are likely to shed light on the molecular mechanisms underlying information coding in the mammalian olfactory system. This review is also published in Current Opinion in Neurobiology 1992, 2:282-288.
