Transcriptomics_of_human_olfactory_mucosa

The olfactory gene repertoire is largely species-specific, shaped by the nature and necessityof chemosensory information for survival in each species' niche. We are intrigued by thisinterspecific variation and started to investigate the olfactory transcriptome in primates forevidence of selection at the level of receptor gene choice. Having collected this data fromtwo primates, we now wish to extend the analysis to humans.This data is part of a pre-publication release.
