Omp - olfactory marker protein

Predicted to enable peptide binding activity. Acts upstream of or within neurogenesis and sensory perception of smell. Located in several cellular components, including axon; cytosol; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; eye; genitourinary system; intestine; and olfactory system. Orthologous to human OMP (olfactory marker protein).
