Description

OR5C1 encodes an olfactory receptor belonging to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family. These receptors are expressed in the olfactory epithelium and mediate the detection of odorants, initiating a neuronal response that triggers the perception of smell. OR5C1 is part of the large olfactory receptor gene family, which is the largest in the genome.

Protein Summary

OR5C1 is a 312-amino acid transmembrane protein with seven helical domains characteristic of GPCRs. It is predicted to localize to the plasma membrane of olfactory sensory neurons and bind odorant molecules, activating a G protein signaling cascade that leads to neuronal depolarization.
