Automated Description
Predicted to enable ionotropic olfactory receptor activity and odorant binding activity. Involved in detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of smell and olfactory behavior. Predicted to be located in dendrite membrane. Predicted to be part of cation channel complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in antennal lobe glomerulus; embryonic/larval antennal lobe; external sensory organ; and olfactory receptor neurons.
FB Description
