Example sentences for: odorant

How can you use “odorant” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Certain sequences underwent multiple recent duplications, resulting in large species specific sequence families, such as the C. elegans seven-transmembrane proteins acting as odorant and chemosensory receptors [ 19 20 ] . For query sequences belonging to such sequence families, orthologs (if present) are less effective for predicting specific information.

  • Taking into account the high observed sequence variability (Figures 2, 4) in additional OR domains known to be involved in ligand recognition in other G-protein-coupled receptors [ 46, 47], such as TM6 and extracellular loops, that model may not be sufficient to provide a complete description of odorant binding specificity determinants.

  • Robertson, personal communication, FBrf0141780; K. Scott and R. Axel, personal communication, FBrf0137428), and 61 odorant receptor genes (H.

  • These micro-relays sum up the input from same chemoreceptors, tremendously increasing the signal-to-noise ratio, and thus facilitating reliable odorant detection [26].

  • Most importantly, in conjunction with robust heterologous expression and assay systems and high-throughput screening of odorant libraries, it will ultimately lead to understanding of structure-function relationships and small-molecule recognition by this large group of G-protein-coupled receptors.
