TAS2R16

TAS2R16 is a human gene that encodes for a receptor that may play a role in the perception of bitterness.

TAS2R38

Taste receptor 2 member 38 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R38 gene. TAS2R38 is a bitter taste receptor; varying genotypes of TAS2R38 influence the ability to taste both 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) and phenylthiocarbamide (PTC). Though it has often been proposed that varying taste receptor genotypes could influence tasting ability, TAS2R38 is one of the few taste receptors shown to have this function.

TAS2R1

Taste receptor type 2 member 1 (TAS2R1/T2R1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R1 gene. It belongs to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family and is related to class A-like GPCRs, they contain 7 transmembrane helix bundles and short N-terminus loop. Furthermore, TAS2R1 is member of the 25 known human bitter taste receptors, which enable the perception of bitter taste in the mouth cavity. Increasing evidence indicates a functional role of TAS2Rs in extra-oral tissues.

TAS2R8

Taste receptor type 2 member 8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R8 gene.

TAS2R9

Taste receptor type 2 member 9 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R9 gene.

TAS2R14

Taste receptor type 2 member 14 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R14 gene.

TAS2R7

Taste receptor type 2 member 7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R7 gene.

TAS1R2

Taste receptor type 1 member 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS1R2 gene.

TAS1R3

Taste receptor type 1 member 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS1R3 gene. The TAS1R3 gene encodes the human homolog of mouse Sac taste receptor, a major determinant of differences between sweet-sensitive and -insensitive mouse strains in their responsiveness to sucrose, saccharin, and other sweeteners.

TAS2R39

Taste receptor type 2 member 39 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R39 gene.

TAS2R40

TAS2R31

Taste receptor, type 2, member 31, also known as TAS2R31, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the TAS2R31 gene. This bitter taste receptor has been shown to respond to saccharin in vitro.

TAS2R45

Taste receptor type 2 member 45 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R45 gene.

TAS2R46

Taste receptor type 2 member 46 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R46 gene.

TAS2R30 Protein-coding gene in humans

Taste receptor type 2 member 30 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R30 gene.

TAS2R19

Taste receptor type 2 member 19 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R19 gene. It seems to be involved in the perception of salt and bitter tastes.

TAS2R20

Taste receptor type 2 member 20 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R20 gene.
