The Odorant-Binding Protein Gene obp11 Shows Different Spatiotemporal Roles in the Olfactory System of Apis mellifera ligustica and Apis cerana cerana

Sociobiology, 2013
Odorant-binding proteins participate in the olfactory system of the honeybee. Apis mellifera ligustica and Apis cerana cerana are species of honeybee that have different biologic functions.

Impaired sense of smell and altered olfactory system in RAG-1-/- immunodeficient mice

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015
Immune deficiencies are often associated with a number of physical manifestations including loss of sense of smell and an increased level of anxiety. We have previously shown that T and B cell-deficient recombinase activating gene (RAG-1)-/- knockout ...

RNA sequencing of olfactory bulb in Parkinson's disease reveals gene alterations associated with olfactory dysfunction

Neurobiology of Disease
The olfactory bulb is involved early in the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease (PD), which is consistent with the early onset of olfactory dysfunction.

An epigenetic repressor TRIM66 dictates monogenic olfactory receptor expression, neural activity, and olfactory behavior

Nature Communications
Olfactory receptor gene choice is an intricate example of monogenic and monoallelic expression, where one out of over 1000 receptor genes is transcribed in each olfactory sensory neuron.

The recombination activation gene 1 (Rag1) is expressed in a subset of zebrafish olfactory neurons but is not essential for axon targeting or amino acid detection

BMC Neuroscience, 2005
Background Rag1 (Recombination activation gene-1) mediates genomic rearrangement and is essential for adaptive immunity in vertebrates. This gene is also expressed in the olfactory epithelium, but its function there is unknown. Results Using a transgenic

A transcriptomic atlas of mammalian olfactory mucosae reveals an evolutionary influence on food odor detection in humans

Science Advances, 2019
Comparative transcriptomics of olfactory mucosae offers clues into the putative functions of highly abundant ORs in mammals. The mammalian olfactory system displays species-specific adaptations to different ecological niches.

Olfactory receptor genes make the case for inter-chromosomal interactions

Current Opinion in Genetics and Development, 2019
The partitioning of the interphase nucleus into chromosome territories generally precludes DNA from making specific and reproducible inter-chromosomal contacts.
