OR7E47P
Description
The OR7E47P (olfactory receptor family 7 subfamily E member 47 pseudogene) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 12.
OR7E47P is a pseudogene located on chromosome 11. It is a non-functional copy of a gene that encodes an olfactory receptor. Olfactory receptors are responsible for detecting odorants and sending signals to the brain. Pseudogenes are inactive genes that have lost their function due to mutations. The function of OR7E47P is unknown.
OR7E47P is a member of the olfactory receptor family, which is the largest gene family in mammals. Olfactory receptors are involved in the detection of odorants. The olfactory receptor genes are expressed in olfactory sensory neurons and are responsible for the perception of different odors. OR7E47P is a pseudogene, which means that it is a non-functional copy of a gene. Pseudogenes often arise through mutations that disrupt the gene's function. The function of OR7E47P is unknown.
OR7E47P is also known as OR7E141.
