Bacterial MgrB peptide activates chemoreceptor Fpr3 in mouse accessory olfactory system and drives avoidance behaviour

The role of chemoreceptors on vomeronasal neurons are not fully understood. Here the authors show that in mice, the vomeronasal chemoreceptor Fpr3 responds to peptides from the bacterial MgrB protein, and that exposure to these peptides drives an avoidance response.
