Description

OR5A2 encodes an olfactory receptor belonging to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily. These receptors are primarily expressed in the olfactory epithelium and mediate the detection of odorants. OR5A2 is a member of the olfactory receptor family 5, subfamily A, and is located on chromosome 11q12.1. The gene is intronless and is considered a canonical olfactory receptor gene.

Protein Summary

OR5A2 is a 312-amino acid olfactory receptor protein with seven transmembrane domains characteristic of GPCRs. It is predicted to localize to the plasma membrane of olfactory sensory neurons and function in odorant recognition. No functional studies or ligand specificity have been experimentally determined for this receptor.
