A spatial code governs olfactory receptor choice and aligns sensory maps in the nose and brain

David H. Brann, Tatsuya Tsukahara, Cyrus Tau, Dennis Kalloor, Rylin W. Lubash, Lakshanyaa Thamarai Kannan, Nell Klimpert, Mihály Köllő, Martín Escamilla-Del-Arenal, Bogdan Bintu, Andreas T. Schaefer, Alexander Fleischmann, Thomas C. Bozza, Sandeep Robert Datta

The paper shows that olfactory receptor expression in the nose follows a spatial code controlled by a retinoic acid gradient, aligning epithelial and brain maps.

Flp-recombinase mouse line for genetic manipulation of ipRGCs

E Contreras, Chaolan Liang, HL Mahoney, JL Javier, ML Luce, K Labastida Medina, Thomas C. Bozza, TM Schmidt

This paper describes the generation of a mouse line (Opn4FlpO) that expresses Flp-recombinase specifically in ipRGCs, enabling targeted genetic manipulation of these cells.

Map-independent representation of an aggression-promoting social cue in the main olfactory pathway

Annika Cichy, Adam Dewan, Jingji Zhang, Sarah D. Kaye, Tiffany Zhang Teng, Kassandra N. Blanchard, Paul G. Feinstein, Thomas C. Bozza

The paper identifies trimethylamine as a male-specific odor detected via TAAR5 in the main olfactory pathway that drives inter-male aggression in mice, independent of glomerular input.

Single olfactory receptors set odor detection thresholds

Adam Dewan, Annika Cichy, Jingji Zhang, Kayla C. Miguel, Paul G. Feinstein, Dmitry A. Rinberg, Thomas C. Bozza

The paper shows that single olfactory receptors, specifically TAARs, set odor detection thresholds in mice, with sensitivity determined by the most sensitive receptor.

Stimulus Dependent Diversity And Stereotypy In The Output Of An Olfactory Functional Unit

Ezequiel M. Arneodo, Kristina B. Penikis, Neil C. Rabinowitz, Angela Licata, Annika Cichy, Jingji Zhang, Thomas C. Bozza, Dmitry A. Rinberg

The paper shows that sister MT cells in a glomerulus exhibit diverse or stereotyped responses to odorants, with stereotypy linked to ligand affinity regardless of concentration.
