Project description:Mice have 1,100 odorant receptors. Nearly all are orphan receptors. The pattern of receptor responses to odorants is the input that allows the brain to detect and discriminate odors The Kentucky assay measures the function of each of the 1,100 odorant receptors and 14 TAARs in vivo.
