TAS1R1 - taste 1 receptor member 1 Gene
Also Known as TR1; T1R1; GM148; GPR70
Species: Homo sapiens
About TAS1R1
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 111 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 1.2), gall bladder (RPKM 0.1) and 7 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a G protein-coupled receptor and is a component of the heterodimeric amino acid Taste Receptor T1R1+3. The T1R1+3 receptor responds to L-amino acids but not to D-enantiomers or Other compounds. Most Amino acids that are perceived as sweet activate T1R1+3, and this activation is strictly dependent on an intact T1R1+3 heterodimer. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
