OR2A25


Description

The OR2A25 (olfactory receptor family 2 subfamily A member 25) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 7.

This gene encodes a protein that is a member of the large family of olfactory receptors. Olfactory receptors are responsible for the detection of odorant molecules in the environment. They are expressed in the olfactory epithelium, a specialized tissue in the nose. The protein encoded by this gene is predicted to be an integral membrane protein. It is likely that the protein functions as a receptor for specific odorant molecules.

OR2A25 is also known as OR2A24P, OR2A25P, OR2A27.
