Gene information for OBP2A (Homo sapiens) (Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)

Entrez gene ID 29991 Official gene symbol OBP2A Full name odorant binding protein 2A Aliases ,OBP,OBP2C,OBPIIa,hOBPIIa, Gene summary This gene encodes a small extracellular protein belonging to the lipocalin superfamily. The protein is thought to transport small, hydrophobic, volatile molecules or odorants through the nasal mucus to olfactory receptors, and may also function as a scavenger of highly concentrated or toxic odors. The protein is expressed as a monomer in the nasal mucus, and can bind diverse types of odorants with a higher affinity for aldehydes and fatty acids. This gene and a highly similar family member are located in a cluster of lipocalin genes on chromosome 9. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their biological validity has not been determined.
