Immunogen
A synthetic peptide from human TAS2R46 conjugated to blue carrier protein was used as the antigen.
Accession
Also known
Taste receptor type 2 member 46, T2R46, T2R54, TAS2R54
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. In airway epithelial cells, binding of bitter compounds increases the intracellular calcium ion concentration and stimulates ciliary beat frequency.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell projection ⺠cilium membrane
Note: In airway epithelial cells, localizes to motile cilia.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in subsets of taste receptor cells of the tongue and exclusively in gustducin-positive cells. Expressed on ciliated airway epithelium.
Storage
