A study of rat olfactory mechanisms
Membranes prepared from the olfactory mucosa of the rat show a high level of adenylate cyclase activity, typically 500 pmol/min/mg protein. The activity increases in the presence of odorants and is inhibited by calcium. Linkage of receptor to cyclase seems to be mediated by a G-protein. The existenc...
