olfactory receptor 5G3 (olfactory receptor OR11-213, OR5G3P, OR5G3)

Function

odorant receptor (putative)

Structure

belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family

Compartment

cell membrane

Polymorphism

• a single nucleotide deletion at position Leu-135 in the gene coding for OR5G3P produces a stop codon which is reponsible for functional diversity producing thus a pseudogene

More general terms

• glycoprotein
• olfactory receptor, family 5
