How would a molecule that mimics cAMP affect an olfactory receptor?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Molecules that mimic cAMP can activate olfactory receptors by binding to and activating adenylate cyclase, which ultimately leads to an increase in intracellular cAMP levels. This can open chemically gated sodium channels, increase sodium permeability, and depolarize the olfactory receptor, which can trigger an afferent action potential. Therefore, all of the above options could occur in response to a molecule that mimics cAMP.
