Summary
Enables ionotropic olfactory receptor activity and ligand-gated calcium channel activity. Involved in calcium ion transmembrane transport and detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of smell. Predicted to be located in dendrite membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in embryonic/larval antennal lobe and olfactory receptor neuron of dorsal organ. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]
