Description
- Antibody detects endogenous levels of total TAS2R38
- Receptor that may play a role in the perception of bitterness and is gustducin-linked
- May play a role in sensing the chemical composition of the gastrointestinal content
- The activity of this receptor may stimulate alpha gustducin, mediate PLC-beta-2 activation and lead to the gating of TRPM5
- Expressed in subsets of taste receptor cells of the tongue and exclusively in gustducin-positive cells
- Variations in TAS2R38 are associated with the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide (PTC tasting); also called thiourea tasting
- The ability to taste the substance PTC and a number of related substances is genetically controlled
- Genetic studies have demonstrated complex inheritance for this trait
- For some people (and some chimpanzees also), the chemical PTC tastes very bitter
- For others, it is tasteless
- Actually, substantial variation in taste sensitivity exists in human
- Five haplotypes arising from three coding SNPs in the TAS2R38 gene are associated with distinct phenotypes of PTC taste sensitivity.
