Immunogen
A synthetic peptide from aa region 260-309 of human TAS2R31 conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen.
Accession

Taste receptor type 2 member 31, T2R31, Taste receptor type 2 member 44, T2R44, Taste receptor type 2 member 53, T2R53, TAS2R44
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
. Activated by the sulfonyl amide sweeteners saccharin and acesulfame K.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in subsets of taste receptor cells of the tongue and exclusively in gustducin-positive cells.
MISCELLANEOUS: Most taste cells may be activated by a limited number of bitter compounds; individual taste cells can discriminate among bitter stimuli.
Storage
Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at -20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.
Expiry Date
12 months after reconstitution

Applications
IHC, WB (confirmed by recombinant protein). A dilution of 1 : 300 to 1 : 2000 is recommended. The optimal dilution should be determined by the end user.
Specificity
Specific for TAS2R31 but some cross-reactivity with T2R46 and T2R43 is expected.
