Genetic variation of an odorant receptor OR7D4 and sensory perception of cooked meat containing androstenone.

Genetic variation of an odorant receptor OR7D4 and sensory perception of cooked meat containing androstenone.

Although odour perception impacts food preferences, the effect of genotypic variation of odorant receptors (ORs) on the sensory perception of food is unclear. Human OR7D4 responds to androstenone, and genotypic variation in OR7D4 predicts variation in the perception of androstenone. Since androsteno...
