Have you ever found yourself not liking
the smell of pork? The reason could be
that you have two functional copies of the gene that is linked to an odor
receptor that detects androstenone.
Androstenon is common in pork.
About 70% of people have these two functional copies. The other 30% have one or no functional
copies of the gene. They are able to
tolerate the scent of androstenone better.
