Olfactory receptor 1D2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the OR1D2 gene.{{cite journal | vauthors = Parmentier M, Libert F, Schurmans S, Schiffmann S, Lefort A, Eggerickx D, Ledent C, Mollereau C, Gerard C, Perret J| title = Expression of members of the putative olfactory receptor gene family in mammalian germ cells | journal = Nature | volume = 355 | issue = 6359 | pages = 453–5 |date=Mar 1992 | pmid = 1370859 | doi = 10.1038/355453a0 | bibcode = 1992Natur.355..453P | s2cid = 43926 |display-authors=etal}}{{cite journal | vauthors = Buck L, Axel R | title = A novel multigene family may encode odorant receptors: a molecular basis for odor recognition | journal = Cell | volume = 65 | issue = 1 | pages = 175–87 |date=May 1991 | pmid = 1840504 | doi =10.1016/0092-8674(91)90418-X | doi-access = free }}{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: OR1D2 olfactory receptor, family 1, subfamily D, member 2| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=4991}}

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. The nomenclature assigned to the olfactory receptor genes and proteins for this organism is independent of other organisms.

Expression

As well as bring expressed in the olfactory epithelium of the human nose, OR1D2 is special in that it is also expressed in human spermatozoa, where it is involved in sperm chemotaxis.{{cite journal | vauthors = Spehr M, Gisselmann G, Poplawski A, Riffell JA, Wetzel CH, Zimmer RK, Hatt H | title = Identification of a testicular odorant receptor mediating human sperm chemotaxis | journal = Science | volume = 299 | issue = 5615 | pages = 2054–8 | date = March 2003 | pmid = 12663925 | doi = 10.1126/science.1080376 | bibcode = 2003Sci...299.2054S | s2cid = 45306091 }}
