Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9217585A1] The invention provides an isolated nucleic acid, e.g. cDNA encoding an odorant receptor. The invention further provides expression vectors containing such nucleic acid. Also provided is a purified protein encoding an odorant receptor, with the aforementioned expression vectors and the resulting transformed cell. The invention also provides methods of identifying odorant ligands and of identifying odorant receptors. The invention further provides methods of developing fragrances, of identifying appetite suppressant compounds, of controlling appetite, of controlling pest populations, of promoting and inhibiting fertility, and of detecting odors.
