✦AI Summary

OR1R1 is an olfactory receptor protein localized to the cell membrane. Based on limited published evidence, OR1R1 functions in odorant binding and olfactory receptor activity, enabling detection of chemical stimuli involved in sensory perception of smell. The gene encodes a G protein-coupled receptor typical of the olfactory receptor family. Note: A 1983 publication 1 referencing 'OR1R1 red cells' appears to use this nomenclature in a non-genomic immunological context unrelated to olfactory receptor function.
