Description

OR5AR1 is a protein-coding gene that belongs to the olfactory receptor family, a large group of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) responsible for detecting odorants in the nasal epithelium. The encoded protein is involved in sensory perception of smell, transducing chemical signals from the environment into neuronal responses. OR5AR1 is located on chromosome 11q12.1 and is expressed in various tissues, including the olfactory epithelium and testis.

Protein Summary

OR5AR1 encodes a 312-amino acid protein with seven transmembrane domains characteristic of GPCRs. It functions as an odorant receptor, binding volatile chemicals and activating intracellular signaling cascades via G proteins. The protein is localized to the plasma membrane of olfactory sensory neurons.
