01
Overview
Olfactory receptor family 13 subfamily C member 9 (OR13C9) is a G protein-coupled receptor that belongs to the largest gene family in the human genome—the olfactory receptor family. OR13C9 detects odorant molecules through a 7-transmembrane domain structure, similar to other neurotransmitter and hormone receptors, and transduces signals via G protein-coupling mechanisms. While its primary function is the recognition of odors within the nasal epithelium, recent studies suggest olfactory receptors may also play roles in various non-olfactory physiological processes and potentially in disease mechanisms, though no direct evidence currently exists for OR13C9 in human disease or pharmaceutical intervention. The gene’s synonyms include OR9-13 and OR37L, and it serves as a molecular model for studying GPCR biology and sensory transduction systems.
