An editable high resolution scientific image depicting Mechanism of Odorant Signal Transduction

Description

This template shows the mechanism of odorant signal transduction in an olfactory receptor neuron, tracing an odorant molecule binding its receptor to activate a G protein subunit that stimulates adenylyl cyclase III to produce cAMP from ATP. The resulting cAMP opens a Na+/Ca2+ channel and a Ca2+-gated Cl- channel to depolarize the neuron, with a separate panel showing the repolarization steps that close these channels afterward.
