OR2L13
Description
The OR2L13 (olfactory receptor family 2 subfamily L member 13) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1.
OR2L13 is a gene that encodes a protein called olfactory receptor 2L13. This protein interacts with odorant molecules in the nose to trigger the perception of smell. It's part of a large family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) involved in recognizing and transmitting odorant signals. Interestingly, recent research has linked OR2L13 to regulating platelet activity and the growth of abdominal aortic aneurysms.
Odorant receptor.
OR2L13 is also known as OR2L14.
