OR7E12P
Description
The OR7E12P (olfactory receptor family 7 subfamily E member 12 pseudogene) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 11.
OR7E12P is a gene that encodes a protein called an olfactory receptor. This receptor is part of a large family of proteins that are responsible for detecting and transmitting odorant signals to the brain. OR7E12P is likely involved in the sense of smell, but the exact odorant it binds to and its specific role in olfactory perception are still under investigation.
OR7E12P, also known as olfactory receptor 7E12P, is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the OR7E12P gene. This gene belongs to a large family of olfactory receptor genes, which are responsible for detecting and transmitting odorant signals to the brain. OR7E12P is likely involved in the sense of smell, specifically the detection of particular odorant molecules. However, the precise odorant that it binds to and its specific role in olfactory perception remain to be elucidated.
OR7E12P is also known as HG1058, OR11-3, OR7E58P, OR7E79P, OR7E81P, OST021.
