Zusammenfassung:[...]Buck made three assumptions that drastically narrowed the field, allowing her to "zero in" on a group of genes that appear to code for the odorant receptor proteins. Because many receptors of this type share certain deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequences, Buck designed probes that would recognize these sequences in a pool of rat DNA.
