Olfactory receptor family 4 subfamily A member 18 pseudogene (OR4A18P)
- Target
- OR4A18P
- Molecular classification
- Pseudogene, Olfactory receptor family, G protein-coupled receptor (pseudogene derivation)
01
Overview
Olfactory receptor family 4 subfamily A member 18 pseudogene (OR4A18P) is a human gene classified as a pseudogene, meaning it is a non-functional remnant of a protein-coding gene. It is part of the olfactory receptor family, which normally encodes proteins belonging to the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily and mediates the detection of odorants in the nose[9][6][8]. However, as a pseudogene, OR4A18P does not produce a functional protein, and there is no evidence for a biological role, disease association, or therapeutic relevance in humans[3][5][9]. Alternately, olfactory receptor pseudogenes have been studied for evolutionary and genomic purposes, but not as drug targets or disease genes.
