UniProt Protein Function: | TAS2R48: 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. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor T2R family.Protein type: GPCR, T2R family; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Receptor, GPCR; Membrane protein, integralChromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12p13.2Cellular Component: integral to membrane; plasma membraneMolecular Function: bitter taste receptor activityBiological Process: G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathway; detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of bitter taste |
