  18. The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for 2004 Richard Axel and Linda B. Buck for their discoveries of "odorant receptors and the organization of the olfactory system" Buck, L. and Axel, R. (1991) Cell, vol. 65, 175-187. • Discovery of large family of genes (Approx 1000) that give rise to 1000 odorant receptor proteins - G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) • Total of 25,000 protein coding genes in genome • 1000 odorant receptor genes in mouse (4.0%) • 350 odorant receptor genes in human (1.4%) • Odorant receptor subtypes project to only 1 or 2 glomeruli in the olfactory bulb. • Odorants are encoded by the unique pattern of activity they generate in the brain.
