What's a GeneRIF?

TAAR3, TAAR4 and TAAR5 are evolutionarily conserved and determine the sensitivity to a class of biologically relevant chemicals
Title: Single olfactory receptors set odor detection thresholds.
Previous studies reported TAAR expression in brain. This paper found TAAR expression only in olfactory epithelial cells and that each TAAR detects a unique set of amine ligands. TAARs seem to function as a family of chemosensory receptors for amines.
Title: A second class of chemosensory receptors in the olfactory epithelium.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
