Applying medicinal chemistry principles to the Olfactory Code
The mammalian olfactory system is capable of decoding complex mixtures of volatile chemical odorants into identifiable percepts. While the general mode of peripheral signal transduction is largely known, the mechanism relies on a rather complicated combinatorial “olfactory code”, where each of the h...
