Coding of Olfactory Information

Description
A hypothetical explanation of the coding suggests that different odorant molecules attach to different combinations of receptor molecules. (Activated receptor molecules are shown in blue.) Unique patterns of activation represent particular odorants. (Adapted from Malnic, B., Hirono, J., Sato, T., and Buck, L. B. Cell, 1999, 96, 713–723.)
