Olfactory receptor family 7 subfamily E member 37 pseudogene (OR7E37P)

Olfactory receptor family 7 subfamily E member 37 pseudogene (OR7E37P) is a non-functional pseudogene in the human genome located on chromosome 13[5][6][10]. Although it shares sequence homology with functional olfactory receptor genes, it does not encode a protein capable of binding odorant molecules or participating in olfaction, and it is not known to play any direct role in normal biology or disease[5][10]. The gene is cataloged as a pseudogene by multiple human genome databases and nomenclature committees[2][3][7]. No evidence supports its utility as a therapeutic target, biomarker, or mechanism in the context of drug action, safety, or disease[5][8][10].
