Allosteric antagonism of insect odorant receptor ion channels.

Allosteric antagonism of insect odorant receptor ion channels.

At a molecular level, insects utilize members of several highly divergent and unrelated families of cell-surface chemosensory receptors for detection of volatile odorants. Most odors are detected via a family of odorant receptors (ORs), which form heteromeric complexes consisting of a well-conserved...
