Drosophila menthol sensitivity and the Precambrian origins of TRP-dependent chemosensation

Nathaniel J. Himmel, Jamin M. Letcher, Akira Sakurai…·Daniel N. Cox

The paper investigates menthol sensitivity in Drosophila using TRP channels, finding conserved roles in nociception and suggesting ancient origins of TRP-menthol sensing.
