Taste receptor type 2 member 8
Target Function
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.
Target Subcellular Location
Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Target Protein Families
G-protein coupled receptor T2R family
Target Tissue Specificity
Expressed in subsets of taste receptor cells of the tongue and palate epithelium and exclusively in gustducin-positive cells.
