If you have a question about this talk, please contact Cordula Becker. Odors are primarily detected in the cilia of olfactory neurons. The process begins with the activation of an odorant receptor in the ciliary membrane, followed by synthesis of cAMP through activation of adenylyl cyclase. Ca2+ ions enter the cell through CNG channels causing depolarization of the membrane potential. The resulting Ca2+ concentration rise initiates an outward Ca2+ This talk is part of the Craik Club series. This talk is included in these lists:
