Distinct combinations of variant ionotropic glutamate receptors mediate thermosensation and hygrosensation in Drosophila
Ionotropic Receptors (IRs) are a large subfamily of variant ionotropic glutamate receptors Multi-Tool present across Protostomia.While these receptors are most extensively studied for their roles in chemosensory detection, recent work has implicated two family members, IR21a and IR25a, in thermosensation in Drosophila.Here we characterize one of th
