17-309 1.76e-139

mammalian taste receptor 2, subtype 38, member of the seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; This group includes the mammalian taste receptor 2 (T2R) subtype 38, which functions as a bitter taste receptor. Genetic variants of human TAS2R38 influence the ability to taste synthetic compounds 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) and phenylthiocarbamide (PTC). Thus, sensitivity to the bitter taste of PROP is often used as a marker for individual differences in taste perception that can affect food preferences and intake. The human TAS2R family contains about 25 functional members, which are glycoproteins and have the ability to form both homomeric and heteromeric receptor complexes. Five basic tastes are perceived by animals: bitter, sweet, sour, salty, and umami (the taste of glutamate, MSG). Among these, sour and salty are mediated by ion channels, while the perception of umami and sweet tastes is mediated by the TAS1R taste receptors, which belong to the class C GPCR family. The TAS2Rs in humans have a short extracellular N-terminus and the ligand binds within the transmembrane domain, whereas the TAS1Rs have a large N-terminal extracellular domain composed of the Venus flytrap module that forms the orthosteric (primary) ligand binding site. Signal transduction of bitter taste involves binding of bitter compounds to TAS2Rs linked to the alpha-subunit of gustducin, a heterotrimeric G protein expressed in taste receptor cells. This G-alpha subunit stimulates phosphodiesterase and decreases cAMP and cGMP levels. Further steps in the signaling cascade is still unknown. The beta-gamma-subunit of gustducin also mediates bitter taste transduction by activating phospholipase C, which leads to an increased formation of IP3 (inositol triphosphate) and DAG (diacylglycerol), thereby causing release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and enhanced neurotransmitter release.

mammalian taste receptor 2, subtype 3, member of the seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; This group includes the mammalian taste receptor 2 (TAS2R) subtype 3, which functions as a bitter taste receptor. The human TAS2R family contains about 25 functional members, which are glycoproteins and have the ability to form both homomeric and heteromeric receptor complexes. Five basic tastes are perceived by animals: bitter, sweet, sour, salty, and umami (the taste of glutamate, MSG). Among these, sour and salty are mediated by ion channels, while the perception of umami and sweet tastes is mediated by the TAS1R taste receptors, which belong to the class C GPCR family. The TAS2Rs in humans have a short extracellular N-terminus and the ligand binds within the transmembrane domain, whereas the TAS1Rs have a large N-terminal extracellular domain composed of the Venus flytrap module that forms the orthosteric (primary) ligand binding site. Signal transduction of bitter taste involves binding of bitter compounds to TAS2Rs linked to the alpha-subunit of gustducin, a heterotrimeric G protein expressed in taste receptor cells. This G-alpha subunit stimulates phosphodiesterase and decreases cAMP and cGMP levels. Further steps in the signaling cascade is still unknown. The beta-gamma-subunit of gustducin also mediates bitter taste transduction by activating phospholipase C, which leads to an increased formation of IP3 (inositol triphosphate) and DAG (diacylglycerol), thereby causing release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and enhanced neurotransmitter release.

mammalian taste receptor 2, subtypes 7 and 9, member of the seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; This group includes the mammalian taste receptor 2 (TAS2R) subtypes 7 and 9, which function as bitter taste receptors. The human TAS2R family contains about 25 functional members, which are glycoproteins and have the ability to form both homomeric and heteromeric receptor complexes. Five basic tastes are perceived by animals: bitter, sweet, sour, salty, and umami (the taste of glutamate, MSG). Among these, sour and salty are mediated by ion channels, while the perception of umami and sweet tastes is mediated by the TAS1R taste receptors, which belong to the class C GPCR family. The TAS2Rs in humans have a short extracellular N-terminus and the ligand binds within the transmembrane domain, whereas the TAS1Rs have a large N-terminal extracellular domain composed of the Venus flytrap module that forms the orthosteric (primary) ligand binding site. Signal transduction of bitter taste involves binding of bitter compounds to TAS2Rs linked to the alpha-subunit of gustducin, a heterotrimeric G protein expressed in taste receptor cells. This G-alpha subunit stimulates phosphodiesterase and decreases cAMP and cGMP levels. Further steps in the signaling cascade is still unknown. The beta-gamma-subunit of gustducin also mediates bitter taste transduction by activating phospholipase C, which leads to an increased formation of IP3 (inositol triphosphate) and DAG (diacylglycerol), thereby causing release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and enhanced neurotransmitter release.

18-305 2.97e-22

mammalian taste receptor 2, subtype 41, member of the seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; This group includes the mammalian taste receptor 2 (TAS2R) subtype 41, which functions as a bitter taste receptor. Also included is the closely related TAS2R60. The human TAS2R family contains about 25 functional members, which are glycoproteins and have the ability to form both homomeric and heteromeric receptor complexes. Five basic tastes are perceived by animals: bitter, sweet, sour, salty, and umami (the taste of glutamate, MSG). Among these, sour and salty are mediated by ion channels, while the perception of umami and sweet tastes is mediated by the TAS1R taste receptors, which belong to the class C GPCR family. The TAS2Rs in humans have a short extracellular N-terminus and the ligand binds within the transmembrane domain, whereas the TAS1Rs have a large N-terminal extracellular domain composed of the Venus flytrap module that forms the orthosteric (primary) ligand binding site. Signal transduction of bitter taste involves binding of bitter compounds to TAS2Rs linked to the alpha-subunit of gustducin, a heterotrimeric G protein expressed in taste receptor cells. This G-alpha subunit stimulates phosphodiesterase and decreases cAMP and cGMP levels. Further steps in the signaling cascade is still unknown. The beta-gamma-subunit of gustducin also mediates bitter taste transduction by activating phospholipase C, which leads to an increased formation of IP3 (inositol triphosphate) and DAG (diacylglycerol), thereby causing release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and enhanced neurotransmitter release.
