Summary: Enables ionotropic olfactory receptor activity and ligand-gated calcium channel activity. Involved in calcium ion transmembrane transport and detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of smell. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in adult olfactory receptor neuron Or98a; antennal basiconic sensillum ab7; antennal lobe glomerulus VM5; and antennal lobe glomerulus VM5v.
