Target Information

Putative pheromone receptor implicated in the regulation of social and reproductive behavior. Expressed in a subset of sensory neurons located in the apical layer of the vomeronasal organ. Mice lacking V1RB2 show a disrupted pattern of axonal projections to the accessory olfactory bulb. Mice lacking all but one V1RA and V1RB gene (12% of the V1R repertoire) show a lack of chemosensory response to a subset of known pheromonal ligands and changes in maternal aggression as well as male reproductive behavior.
