Abstract: The rice water weevil (RWW), Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Kuschel (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), is a destructive rice pest that threatens the rice industry worldwide. Odorant receptors (ORs) and odorant receptor coreceptors (Orcos) play an important role in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/scisignal.abm6112
Abstract: The molecular basis for odor perception in humans remains enigmatic because of the difficulty in studying odorant receptors (ORs) outside their native environment. Efforts toward OR expression and functional profiling have been met with limited… read more here.

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.208215
Abstract: ABSTRACT Animals rely on their chemosensory system to discriminate among a very large number of attractive or repulsive chemical cues in the environment, which is essential to respond with proper action. The olfactory sensory systems… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms232012501
Abstract: Mammals recognize chemicals in the air via G protein-coupled odorant receptors (ORs). In addition to their orthosteric binding site, other segments of these receptors modulate ligand recognition. Focusing on human hOR1A1, which is considered prototypical… read more here.

DOI: 10.5483/bmbrep.2022.55.2.010
Abstract: Odorant receptors (ORs), the largest subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors, detect odorants in the nose. In addition, ORs were recently shown to be expressed in many nonolfactory tissues and cells, indicating that these receptors have… read more here.
