Abstract

The article discusses the complement of Leslie Vosshall, a neurogeneticist at the Rockefeller University in New York, and Hiroaki Matsumi and His Group at Duke University Medical Center, in Durnham, North Carolina, for the experimentation on John Amoore's research on the perception of androstenone, an odorous steroid in the urine and sweat of men in the U.S. Matsunumi arranges the coding region of the OR7D4 gene of 391, an odour receptors in tissue-culture cells, to Vosshal's volunteers. It is then, Vosshal recognizes that there is clear and strong correlation between having the functional receptor in the genome and being very sensitive to androstenone.
