OR51B4
Description
The OR51B4 (olfactory receptor family 51 subfamily B member 4) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 11.
Olfactory receptor 51B4 is a protein encoded by the OR51B4 gene in humans. It's part of a large family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) responsible for recognizing and transmitting odorant signals. These receptors interact with odorant molecules in the nose, triggering a neuronal response that leads to the perception of smell. The OR51B4 gene is one of many in the olfactory receptor gene family, which is the largest in the human genome.
Odorant receptor.
OR51B4 is also known as HOR5'Beta1.
