DECIPHERING THE DYNAMICS OF SMELLING
R. E. | Nov 11, 1990 | 2 min read
DECIPHERING THE DYNAMICS OF SMELLING Two articles in Nature and Science that address fine points of signal transduction in olfactory neurons--the cellular pathways that get turned on in response to an odor--have far-reaching implications in the field of olfaction. The Nature piece (347:184-7, Sept. 13, 1990) moves researchers closer to isolating the elusive odor receptor. The article in Science (249:1166-8, Sept. 7, 1990) helps quell a controversy about whether olfaction transdu
