Your Input:
OrcoOdorant receptor coreceptor; Odorant coreceptor which complexes with conventional odorant receptors (ORs) to form odorant-sensing units, providing sensitive and prolonged odorant signaling and calcium permeability. Orco is a universal and integral part of the functional odorant receptor, involved in the dendritic localization of other olfactory receptors. Expression of Orco alone leads to formation of rapid and transient ion channels not directly responding to odorants, but directly activated by intracellular cAMP or cGMP. Snmp, Or67d and lush act in concert to capture fatty-acid-deriv [...] (486 aa)
ppk25Pickpocket 25 (ppk25) encodes a DEG/ENaC channel subunit involved in male courtship behavior and pheromone detection; Belongs to the amiloride-sensitive sodium channel (TC 1.A.6) family. (451 aa)

Gr43aGustatory receptor for sugar taste 43a; Gustatory receptor which mediates acceptance or avoidance behavior, depending on its substrates. Gr43a is the main sugar receptor in larvae. Functions as a narrowly tuned fructose receptor in taste neurons but also as a fructose receptor in the brain. Necessary and sufficient to sense hemolymph fructose and promote feeding in hungry flies but suppress feeding in satiated flies. (453 aa)
Gr5aGustatory receptor 5a for trehalose; Gustatory receptor required for response to the sugar trehalose in taste neurons. Gr5a neurons selectively respond to sugars, in contrast to Gr66a cells which respond to bitter compounds. Flies are attracted to sugars and avoid bitter substances, suggesting that Gr5a neuron activity is sufficient to mediate acceptance behavior. Sugar signal transduction occurs through coupling with G-proteins such as Galpha49B and G-salpha60A. (444 aa)

Required for detection of the male sex pheromone CH503 which is transferred from males to females during mating and inhibits courtship behavior by other males. Gr68a-expressing neurons in the male foreleg relay signals to the suboesophageal zone (SEZ) and courtship suppression is mediated by the rele [...] (389 aa)
