GNAT3 - G protein subunit alpha transducin 3 Gene
Also Known as GDCA; HG1E
Species: Homo sapiens
About GNAT3
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 238 orthologues and 15 paralogues. Low expression observed in reference dataset.
Summary
Sweet, bitter, and umami tastes are transmitted from taste receptors by a specific guanine nucleotide binding protein. The protein encoded by this gene is the alpha subunit of this heterotrimeric G protein, which is found not only in the oral epithelium but also in gut tissues. Variations in this gene have been linked to metabolic syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
