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

David H. Brann, Tatsuya Tsukahara, Cyrus Tau…·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.

HP1B and H3K9me3 Regulate Olfactory Receptor Choice and Transcriptional Identity

Martín Escamilla-Del-Arenal, Rachel Duffié, Hani J. Shayya…·Stavros Lomvardas

This study shows that HP1β regulates olfactory receptor choice and neuronal identity in mice by modulating H3K9me3 levels and chromatin structure, leading to changes in OR expression patterns and reduced receptor diversity.

Stemness factor Mex3a times translation and protein trafficking to ensure robust differentiation of olfactory sensory neurons

Martín Escamilla-Del-Arenal, Lauren C. Tang, Albana L. Kodra…·Rachel Duffié

This study shows that Mex3a regulates neuronal differentiation by controlling translation and trafficking of cell surface proteins, cilia structure, and planar cell polarity in olfactory sensory neurons.
