Cyclic nucleotide-gated channels: structural basis of ligand efficacy and allosteric modulation [PDF]
, 1997 Most working proteins, including metabolic enzymes, transcription regulators, and membrane receptors, transporters, and ion channels, share the property of allosteric coupling. The term 'allosteric' means that these proteins mediate indirect interactions

Expressing exogenous functional odorant receptors in cultured olfactory sensory neurons
Neural Development, 2008 Background Olfactory discrimination depends on the large numbers of odorant receptor genes and differential ligand-receptor signaling among neurons expressing different receptors.

Neuroethology of olfactory-guided behavior and its potential application in the control of harmful insects [PDF]
, 2016 Harmful insects include pests of crops and storage goods, and vectors of human and animal diseases. Throughout their history, humans have been fighting them using diverse methods.

A unified nomenclature for vertebrate olfactory receptors [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019 Abstract Background Olfactory receptors (ORs) are G protein-coupled receptors with a crucial role in odor detection. A typical mammalian genome harbors ~1000 OR genes and pseudogenes; however, different gene duplication/deletion events have occurred in each species, resulting in complex orthology relationships.

Evolution of insect olfactory receptors
eLife, 2014 The olfactory sense detects a plethora of behaviorally relevant odor molecules; gene families involved in olfaction exhibit high diversity in different animal phyla. Insects detect volatile molecules using olfactory (OR) or ionotropic receptors (IR) and in some cases gustatory receptors (GRs).

Olfaction and Pheromones: Uncanonical Sensory Influences and Bulbar Interactions
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2017 The rodent main and accessory olfactory systems (AOS) are considered functionally and anatomically segregated information-processing pathways. Each system is devoted to the detection of volatile odorants and pheromones, respectively.
