Background: Olfactory receptors interact with odorant molecules in the nose, to initiate a neuronal response that triggers the perception of a smell. The olfactory receptor proteins are members of a large family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) arising from single coding-exon genes. Olfactory receptors share a 7-transmembrane domain structure with many neurotransmitter and hormone receptors and are responsible for the recognition and G protein-mediated transduction of odorant signals. The olfactory receptor gene family is the largest in the genome. The nomenclature assigned to the olfactory receptor genes and proteins for this organism is independent of other organisms.

Function:function:Odorant receptor .,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,tissue specificity:Exclusively expressed in the prostate. Up-regulated in prostate cancers.,
Subcellular Location:Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Early endosome membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein .
Expression:Highly expressed in the prostate (PubMed:11707321). Also expressed in spleen, liver, olfactory epithelium, retinal pigment epithelium and medulla oblongata (PubMed:29249973, PubMed:11707321, PubMed:16491480). In the retinal pigment epithelium expression is restricted to the pigment cells and choroid (at protein level) (PubMed:29249973). Expressed in epidermal melanocytes (at protein level) (PubMed:27226631).
