  • A new family of odorant receptors in Drosophila.

    Spletter ML, Luo L. Cell. 2009; 136 (1): 23-5

    In the fruit fly Drosophila, not all olfactory sensory neurons express a seven transmembrane odorant receptor, suggesting that other types of odorant receptors might exist. Benton et al. (2009) now present evidence that a family of proteins related to ionotropic glutamate receptors is a previously unrecognized class of odorant receptors.
