Identification of Olfactory Receptors Responding to Androstenone and the Key Structure Determinant in Domestic Pig by Peidong Yang, Tingting Luo, Shuqi Yang, Anjing Zhang, Yuan Tang, Li Chen, Jinyong Wang, Yongju Zhao, Zhining Zhong, Xuemin Li, Ziyin Han, Yupei Zhang, Yue Tang, Jideng Ma, Long Jin, Keren Long, Mingzhou Li, Lu Lu

“…To further find the structural determinant, we performed ligand-binding cavity analysis on pig OR7D4 with androstenone, predicted seven potential structural sites and further confirmed that F178 and T203 are the key sites for recognizing androstenone. Nevertheless, the natural non-synonymous mutation M133V (rs696400829) of pig OR7D4 was proven to significantly impair the respondence to androstenone. …”
