Identification of chemosensory genes from the antennal transcriptome of Indian meal moth Plodia interpunctella. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Olfaction plays an indispensable role in mediating insect behavior, such as locating host plants, mating partners, and avoidance of toxins and predators. Olfactory-related proteins are required for olfactory perception of insects.

Olfactory receptor antagonism between odorants [PDF]
The EMBO Journal, 2003 The detection of thousands of volatile odorants is mediated by several hundreds of different G protein-coupled olfactory receptors (ORs). The main strategy in encoding odorant identities is a combinatorial receptor code scheme in that different odorants are recognized by different sets of ORs.

Combinatorial Receptor Codes for Odors [PDF]
Cell, 1999 The discriminatory capacity of the mammalian olfactory system is such that thousands of volatile chemicals are perceived as having distinct odors. Here we used a combination of calcium imaging and single-cell RT-PCR to identify odorant receptors (ORs) for odorants with related structures but varied odors.

Heteromeric Anopheline odorant receptors exhibit distinct channel properties. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BackgroundInsect odorant receptors (ORs) function as odorant-gated ion channels consisting of a conventional, odorant-binding OR and the Orco coreceptor.

Insect odorant response sensitivity is tuned by metabotropically autoregulated olfactory receptors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Insects possess one of the most exquisitely sensitive olfactory systems in the animal kingdom, consisting of three different types of chemosensory receptors: ionotropic glutamate-like receptors (IRs), gustatory receptors (GRs) and odorant receptors (ORs).
