Olfactory receptors: Structure and function Antennal lobe: coding odors at the level of the primary olfactory neuropil

2 on the concentration. Natural odors are composed
of many molecular components Which all have their own characteristic smell. The mixture of all the components usually smell very different from that of any compenent. The smell of any component or mixture can depend very much on the concentration. Gaschromatigraph of odor natural mixtures Roman Kaiser, Vom Duft der Orchideen, 1993

7 There are two olfactory systems in all animals
The pheromone system The general odor system For example in mammals: Pheromone system: vomero-nasal organ (VNO) Axons of the olfactory neruons projects to the accessory olfactory bulb (AOB) For general odors: main olfactory epithelium Axons of the olfactory neurons project to the Olfactory bulb Rodriguez et al 1999 Vomeronasalorgan Rezeptor Gege siehe Abb. RezeptorGene.ppt dort Text However. these two systems are often not fully separated in function Belluscio et al. 1999

18 Olfactory sensillae in flies
Singel sensillujm electrophysiology shows two cells per sensillum. They can be separately analysed because of spike shape differences. In each sensillum the two cells have a different response spectrum de Bruyne 1999

19 ORNs can be grouped in classes
Recording from many individual basiconic sensilla. They can be classified via a hierarchical clustering procedure and the data show they fall into response classes. de Bruyne 1999

20 There are many different ORN classes
Distribution of sensillum types on antenna 22 ORN classes in 9 types of sensilla Overview of present knowledge on ORN (olfactory receptor neuron) response classes. The are distributed on the two organs (antenna and palp) and on the antenna in partly overlapping zones. de Bruyne 2001

21 Verschiedene Rezeptoren auf der Antenne
Or 22a The expression pattern of olfactory Receptor genes in Drosophila shows: different receptor molecules are expressed in different receptor neurons axones of recept neurons project to the same glomerulus Vosshall et al. 1999 Verschiedene Rezeptoren auf der Antenne Antennal Lobus Cell, Vol. 96, , March 5,1999, Copyright ©1999 by Cell Press A Spatial Map of Olfactory Receptor Expressionin the Drosophila Antenna Leslie B. Vosshall,* Hubert Amrein,*Pavel S. Morozov.t Andrey Rzhetsky.tand Richard Axel** Department of Biochemistry and Molecular BiophysicsHoward Hughes Medical Institutet Columbia Genome CenterColumbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons New York, New York 10032Summary Insects provide an attractive System for the study olfactory sensory perception. We have identified a novel family of seven transmembrane domain proteins, en-coded by 100 to 200 genes, that is likely to represent the family of Drosophila odorant receptors. Members of this gene family are expressed in topographically defined subpopulations of olfactory sensory neurons in either the antenna or the maxillary palp. Sensory neurons express different complements of receptor qenes, such that individual neurons are functionally distinct. The isolation of candidate odorant receptor genes along with a genetic analysis of olfactory-dnven behavior in insects may ultimately afford a system to understand the mechanistic link between odor recog- nition and behavior.
