Description

OR12D1 is a member of the olfactory receptor (OR) gene family, which encodes G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) responsible for odorant detection in the nasal epithelium. These receptors are characterized by a seven-transmembrane domain structure and are involved in the sensory perception of smell. OR12D1 is located on chromosome 6p22.1 within a cluster of olfactory receptor genes. While its specific odorant ligands are not fully characterized, it is expressed in olfactory tissues and may also have ectopic expression in other tissues, suggesting potential non-olfactory functions.

Protein Summary

OR12D1 is a 312-amino-acid protein with a typical GPCR structure, including seven transmembrane helices. It is predicted to localize to the plasma membrane and function as a receptor for odorant molecules. The protein is part of the olfactory receptor family, which is the largest gene family in the human genome. OR12D1 may also be involved in chemosensory processes beyond olfaction, as some olfactory receptors are ectopically expressed in other tissues.
