Function

• specifically promotes functional cell surface expression of olfactory receptors, but not of other GPCRs
• interacts with olfactory receptors

Structure

belongs to the TMEM7 family

Compartment

• cell membrane
• effective cell surface expression depends upon interaction with olfactory receptors
