Rabbit Anti-TAS2R1, CT (TAS2R1, Taste receptor type 2 member 1, Taste receptor family B member 7)
TAS2R1, Taste receptor type 2 member 1, Taste receptor family B member 7

This gene encodes a member of a family of candidate taste receptors that are members of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily and that are specifically expressed by taste receptor cells of the tongue and palate epithelia. This intronless taste receptor gene encodes a 7-transmembrane receptor protein, functioning as a bitter taste receptor. This gene is mapped to chromosome 5p15, the location of a genetic locus (PROP) that controls the detection of the bitter compound 6-n-propyl-2-thiouracil.
