Taar5 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables trimethylamine receptor activity. Involved in adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; cognition; and sensory perception of chemical stimulus. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in Grueneberg ganglion; endolymphatic duct; nasal septum; olfactory epithelium; and utricle. Orthologous to human TAAR5 (trace amine associated receptor 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Taar5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
