Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Genomic Location:** The OR4E1 gene is located on chromosome 2q33.3 in humans (ENSG00000276240). 2. **Expression Patterns:** OR4E1 is significantly expressed in immune cells, including B cells, natural killer cells, dendritic cells, monocytes, and macrophages. 3. **Receptor Type:** OR4E1 is a G protein-coupled receptor, which is a class of receptors that respond to ligand binding by activating G proteins and initiating downstream signaling pathways. 4. **Ligand Binding:** OR4E1 binds to odorant molecules, which are small molecules that elicit a specific response from the olfactory system. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Detection of Chemical Stimulus:** OR4E1 plays a crucial role in detecting chemical stimuli involved in the sensory perception of smell. When an odorant molecule binds to OR4E1, it activates a signaling cascade that ultimately leads to the perception of the odor. 2. **G Protein-Coupled Receptor Signaling:** OR4E1 is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family, which responds to ligand binding by activating G proteins. This activation leads to the activation of downstream signaling pathways, including the activation of adenylate cyclase and the production of cAMP. 3. **Olfactory Signaling Pathway:** OR4E1 is part of the olfactory signaling pathway, which is responsible for the transmission of olfactory information from the nose to the brain. 4. **Immune Regulation:** OR4E1 is also expressed in immune cells, suggesting its involvement in immune regulation and potentially in the regulation of the olfactory system. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Olfactory Disorders:** Mutations in the OR4E1 gene have been associated with olfactory disorders, including anosmia (loss of smell) and hyposmia (reduced sense of smell). 2. **Immune Regulation:** OR4E1 may play a role in regulating immune responses, particularly in the context of inflammation and infection. 3. **Neurological Disorders:** OR4E1 has been implicated in various neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis. 4. **Cancer:** OR4E1 has been identified as a potential biomarker for cancer, particularly in the context of epithelial cancers. In conclusion, OR4E1 is a critical gene involved in the detection of chemical stimuli involved in the sensory perception of smell. Its expression in immune cells suggests its involvement in immune regulation and potentially in the regulation of the olfactory system. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the role of OR4E1 in human health and disease.
