Common promoter elements in odorant and vomeronasal receptor genes.

Common promoter elements in odorant and vomeronasal receptor genes.

In mammals, odorants and pheromones are detected by hundreds of odorant receptors (ORs) and vomeronasal receptors (V1Rs and V2Rs) expressed by sensory neurons that are respectively located in the main olfactory epithelium and in the vomeronasal organ. Even though these two olfactory systems are func...
