Description

OR5K1 encodes an olfactory receptor belonging to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily. These receptors are expressed in the olfactory epithelium and mediate the detection of odorants through a cAMP signaling cascade. The gene is part of the large olfactory receptor gene family, which is the largest in the human genome.

Protein Summary

OR5K1 is a 312-amino acid olfactory receptor protein with seven transmembrane domains, typical of GPCRs. It is predicted to bind odorant molecules and activate G proteins, initiating a signal transduction cascade that leads to neuronal depolarization.
