CC -!- FUNCTION: Odorant coreceptor which complexes with conventional odorant
CC receptors (ORs) to form odorant-sensing units, providing sensitive and
CC prolonged odorant signaling and calcium permeability. Orco is a
CC universal and integral part of the functional odorant receptor,
CC involved in the dendritic localization of other olfactory receptors.
CC Expression of Orco alone leads to formation of rapid and transient ion
CC channels not directly responding to odorants, but directly activated by
CC intracellular cAMP or cGMP. Snmp, Or67d and lush act in concert to
CC capture fatty-acid-derived male pheromone 11-cis vaccenyl acetate (cVA)
CC molecules on the surface of Or67d expressing olfactory dendrites and
CC facilitate their transfer to the odorant-receptor Orco complex.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15339651, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15592462,

CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21937991}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heterodimer with conventional odorant receptors (ORs).
CC Complexes exist early in the endomembrane system in olfactory sensory
CC neurons (OSNs), coupling these complexes to the conserved ciliary
CC trafficking pathway.
CC -!- INTERACTION:
CC Q9VNB5; P81917: Or43a; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-15562228, EBI-15562282;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16402857};
CC Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16402857}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expression is restricted to olfactory sensory
CC neurons (OSNs). Coexpressed with Snmp in a lateral-distal population of
CC OSNs. Expressed in the embryonic antennal-maxillary complex, in all 21
CC OSNs of the larval dorsal organ, in the pupal antennal OSNs, in all 120
CC adult maxillary palp neurons and in approximately 70-80% of adult
CC antennal OSNs, where expression is highest at the dorsal-medial edge.
CC Localized to OSN cell bodies and to the distal portion of ciliated OSN
CC dendrites. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10089887, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10943836,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:15339651, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16402857,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:17943085}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed throughout all developmental stages.
CC First expressed at embryonic stage 15. Pupal expression first occurs 80
CC hours after puparium formation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15339651}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The atypical heteromeric and topological design of the
CC odorant receptors appears to be an insect-specific solution for odor
CC recognition, making the OR/Orco complex an attractive target for the
CC development of highly selective insect repellents to disrupt olfactory-
CC mediated host-seeking behaviors of insect disease vectors. Odor-evoked
CC OR currents are independent of known G-protein-coupled second messenger
CC pathways. The homomeric Orco channel is thought to be a cyclic-
CC nucleotide-gated ion channel that depolarizes the olfactory receptor
CC neuron.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the insect chemoreceptor superfamily.
CC Heteromeric odorant receptor channel (TC 1.A.69) family. Orco
CC subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
