Gene Summary
Odorant receptor which mediates acceptance or avoidance behavior, depending on its substrates. The odorant receptor repertoire encodes a large collection of odor stimuli that vary widely in identity, intensity, and duration. Involved in the behavioral responses to esters. Complexes with Orco to form odorant-sensing units, providing sensitive and prolonged odorant signaling and calcium permeability. They are necessary and sufficient to promote functional reconstitution of odor-evoked signaling in sensory neurons that normally respond only to carbon dioxide. (UniProt, P81910)

Gene Group (FlyBase)
ODORANT RECEPTORS -
Insect odorant receptors (ORs) are a family of chemoreceptors activated by volatile chemicals. ORs form heteromeric complexes, believed to function as non-selective cation channels, comprising an OR and the co-receptor Orco. ORs are expressed in the dendrites of subsets of olfactory neurons in the antenna and maxillary palp. (Adapted from FBrf0168007 and FBrf0220463).

Model Confidence:
  • Very high (pLDDT > 90)
  • Confident (90 > pLDDT > 70)
  • Low (70 > pLDDT > 50)
  • Very low (pLDDT < 50)

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.
