Silencing the odorant receptor co-receptor impairs olfactory reception in a sensillum-specific manner in the cockroach
Summary: Insects detect odors via a large variety of odorant receptors (ORs) expressed in olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs). The insect OR is a heteromeric complex composed of a ligand-specific receptor and the co-receptor (ORco). In this study, we identified the ORco gene of the cockroach, Periplane...
