OverviewNCBI Gene
Olfactory receptors interact with odorant molecules in the nose, to initiate a neuronal response that triggers the perception of a smell. The olfactory receptor proteins are members of a large family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) arising from single coding-exon genes. Olfactory receptors share a 7-transmembrane domain structure with many neurotransmitter and hormone receptors and are responsible for the recognition and G protein-mediated transduction of odorant signals. The olfactory receptor gene family is the largest in the genome. This family member represents a polymorphic pseudogene, whereby some individuals have a functional allele that encodes a full-length protein, while others have a non-functional allele due to the presence of an early stop codon and a 3' end deletion.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads OR8G1 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against OR8G1 could matter depends on whether native OR8G1 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
OR8G1 is annotated at the cell surface, where native OR8G1 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label OR8G1 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
