Title: Does the pacinian corpuscle
Post by: Charmon on Apr 2, 2017
The olfactory receptor also contains a membrane protein that recognizes isoamyl acetate and, via several other molecules, transduces the odor stimulus into a receptor potential. Does the Pacinian corpuscle likely have this isoamyl acetate receptor protein? Does the free nerve ending likely have this isoamyl acetate receptor protein?

Pacinian corpuscle and free nerve ending are not likely to have the isoamylacetate receptor because they did not respond to
chemical stimuli.
