**Background of Recombinant Human OR8B4 Protein**
The olfactory receptor family OR8B4, part of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily, is primarily associated with the detection of odorants in the olfactory system. These receptors are expressed in olfactory sensory neurons within the nasal epithelium, where they bind to specific volatile chemical compounds, triggering signal transduction pathways that contribute to the sense of smell. OR8B4, encoded by the *OR8B4* gene, is one of hundreds of olfactory receptors (ORs) in humans, which collectively enable the recognition of a vast array of odor molecules through combinatorial activation patterns.
Recombinant OR8B4 protein refers to the engineered form of this receptor produced in heterologous expression systems (e.g., mammalian, insect, or bacterial cells). Its production enables structural and functional studies to elucidate its ligand specificity, activation mechanisms, and role in olfactory signaling. Recent research also explores potential "ectopic" expression of ORs, including OR8B4, in non-olfactory tissues, suggesting roles in cellular processes beyond smell, such as metabolic regulation or disease pathways.
Studying recombinant OR8B4 aids in understanding olfactory receptor biology, drug discovery (targeting ORs for therapeutic modulation), and biosensor development. Challenges include maintaining receptor stability and proper folding *in vitro*, which often requires optimized expression systems and lipid bilayer mimetics. Advances in cryo-EM and GPCR pharmacology continue to enhance insights into OR8B4's 3D structure and ligand-binding dynamics.
