    Tyrene
    Inhibitor
    Tyrene (2,4,6-Trichloroanisole) is an off-flavor compound, cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channel inhibitor, and olfactory transduction attenuator. Tyrene is formed by microbial O-methylation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol. Tyrene inhibits channel activity in olfactory receptor cells by partitioning into the plasma membrane lipid bilayer, and also suppresses odorant- and cAMP-induced currents in individual olfactory receptor cells. Tyrene causes cork taint in wine. Tyrene also produces off-flavors in potato chips, dried fruits, coffee, and drinking water.
