Description

OR1L3 is a member of the olfactory receptor family, which are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) responsible for detecting odorants. These receptors are expressed in the olfactory epithelium and mediate the sense of smell. OR1L3 is located on chromosome 9q33.2 and is classified as a protein-coding gene. Its specific ligand and physiological role remain under investigation.

Protein Summary

OR1L3 encodes a 312-amino acid olfactory receptor protein with seven transmembrane domains, characteristic of GPCRs. It is predicted to bind odorants and activate downstream signaling via G proteins. Expression is primarily in olfactory epithelium, but low levels in other tissues suggest possible ectopic functions.
