OR7E5P
Description
The OR7E5P (olfactory receptor family 7 subfamily E member 5 pseudogene) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 11.
OR7E5P is a gene that encodes an olfactory receptor protein, a type of protein that detects odorant molecules. It is involved in the process of smell.
OR7E5P, also known as olfactory receptor 7E5P, is a protein that belongs to the large family of olfactory receptors. These receptors are responsible for the detection of odorant molecules in the environment. When an odorant binds to an olfactory receptor, it triggers a signal transduction cascade that ultimately leads to the perception of smell. While the specific odorant(s) that activate OR7E5P are currently unknown, its function likely involves detecting and transducing signals from odorants in the environment.
OR7E5P is also known as OR11-12, OR11-156, OR7F5P.
