Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention identifies substances that suppress odors of sulfide compounds. Provided is a method for evaluating and/or selecting an agent for suppressing odors of sulfide compounds, the method comprising the following steps: adding a test substance and a sulfide compound to OR4S2 and at least one type of olfactory receptor polypeptide selected from among a group consisting of polypeptides having at least 80% identicality to OR4S2 in an amino acid sequence; and measuring the response of the olfactory receptor polypeptide to the sulfide compound.
