nervous system
• Like other null alleles of this olfactory receptor, the olfactory sensory neurons of the sensory organ are found predominantly in the basal, not apical, sensory organ epithelium and main olfactory epithelium
• olfactory sensory neurons that transcribe this locus express nuclear localized Cre recombinase rather than the endogenous olfactory receptor

taste/olfaction
• Like other null alleles of this olfactory receptor, the olfactory sensory neurons of the sensory organ are found predominantly in the basal, not apical, sensory organ epithelium and main olfactory epithelium
• olfactory sensory neurons that transcribe this locus express nuclear localized Cre recombinase rather than the endogenous olfactory receptor

craniofacial
• Like other null alleles of this olfactory receptor, the olfactory sensory neurons of the sensory organ are found predominantly in the basal, not apical, sensory organ epithelium and main olfactory epithelium
• olfactory sensory neurons that transcribe this locus express nuclear localized Cre recombinase rather than the endogenous olfactory receptor

respiratory system
• Like other null alleles of this olfactory receptor, the olfactory sensory neurons of the sensory organ are found predominantly in the basal, not apical, sensory organ epithelium and main olfactory epithelium
• olfactory sensory neurons that transcribe this locus express nuclear localized Cre recombinase rather than the endogenous olfactory receptor

growth/size/body
• Like other null alleles of this olfactory receptor, the olfactory sensory neurons of the sensory organ are found predominantly in the basal, not apical, sensory organ epithelium and main olfactory epithelium
• olfactory sensory neurons that transcribe this locus express nuclear localized Cre recombinase rather than the endogenous olfactory receptor
