OR5AK4P


Description

The OR5AK4P (olfactory receptor family 5 subfamily AK member 4 pseudogene) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 11.

This gene encodes a member of the G protein-coupled receptor 1 family. Members of this family are characterized by seven transmembrane domains and are involved in a variety of cellular processes including sensory perception, neurotransmission, and hormone regulation. The encoded protein is an olfactory receptor and is likely involved in the detection of odorants. This gene is located in a cluster of olfactory receptor genes on chromosome 11.
