A novel multigene family may encode odorant receptors: A molecular basis for odor recognition
Combinatorial Receptor Codes for Odors
A zonal organization of odorant receptor gene expression in the olfactory epithelium
A second class of chemosensory receptors in the olfactory epithelium
TLDR
The evolutionary conservation of the TAAR family suggests a chemosensory function distinct from odorant receptors, and ligands identified for TAARs thus far suggest a function associated with the detection of social cues.
Information coding in the olfactory system: Evidence for a stereotyped and highly organized epitope map in the olfactory bulb
A Multigene Family Encoding a Diverse Array of Putative Pheromone Receptors in Mammals
The human olfactory receptor gene family.
TLDR
Type of odorant structures that may be recognized by some subfam families were predicted by identifying subfamilies that contain ORs with known odor ligands or human homologs of such ORs, and most subfam Families are encoded by a single chromosomal locus.
Information coding in the vertebrate olfactory system.

TLDR
This review discusses current knowledge concerning the mechanisms by which olfactory stimuli are initially detected and transduced into electrical signals that are transmitted to the Olfactory bulb of the brain.
Formyl peptide receptors are candidate chemosensory receptors in the vomeronasal organ
TLDR
A third family of mouse VNO receptors comprising 5 of 7 members of the formyl peptide receptor (FPR) family are reported, like other FPRs, which function in the immune system, but are selectively expressed in VNO neurons in patterns strikingly similar to those of V1Rs and V2Rs.
A family of candidate taste receptors in human and mouse
TLDR
The identification of a family of candidate taste receptors (the TRBs) that are members of the G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily and that are specifically expressed by taste receptor cells are reported.
