{"symbol":"OR10J3","synonyms":["OR10J3P"],"name":"olfactory receptor, family 10, subfamily J, member 3","description":"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. This gene is considered a pseudogene because the encoded protein is truncated and missing the last transmembrane domain in several mammals.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2021]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":441911,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/441911","proteins":[{"symbol":"O10J3_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/O10J3_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[{"name":"G protein-coupled receptors","href":"/api/1.0/gene_family/G+protein-coupled+receptors"}]}
