#Ants use a “new” mechanism to regulate gene expression at large tandem arrays of #odorant #receptors. #Neurons “choose” a transcription start site along the array, and then express all downstream genes. To fine-tune receptor expression in the neurons, only RNA from the most upstream expressed gene is exported into the cytoplasm to be translated. This suggests that, despite #coexpression, ant #olfactory neurons ultimately make only one receptor.

New paper in @CurrentBiology by @aninditabrahma_, @Dom_Frank3, Daniel Hejazi Pastor, and @patKpiekarski @RockefellerUniv. We discovered that ants use a wild “new” mechanism to regulate gene expression at large tandem arrays of odorant receptors (1/7): https://authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S0960-9822(23)01539-7
