High impact information on Or1a

  • The gene is composed of 12 exons; 2 exons 1, i.e., exon 1a and 1b, are used separately or in conjunction to form exon 1a-exon 1b-exon 2 alternatively spliced mRNA [1].
  • The Tcp-1a cDNA has an open reading frame (ORF) encoding a 60-kDa protein of 556 amino acids (aa) [2].
