taste receptor T2R3 [Macaca mulatta]

Protein Classification

G protein-coupled receptor family protein; olfactory receptor subfamily 2A protein( domain architecture ID 11606649)

G protein-coupled receptor family protein is a seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor (7TM-GPCR) family protein which typically transmits an extracellular signal into the cell by the conformational rearrangement of the 7TM helices and by the subsequent binding and activation of an intracellular heterotrimeric G protein; GPCR ligands include light-sensitive compounds, odors, pheromones, hormones, and neurotransmitters| olfactory receptor (OR) subfamily 2A protein, such as human olfactory receptor 2A2 and related proteins in other mammals and sauropsids; ORs play a central role in olfaction, the sense of smell, and belong to the class A rhodopsin-like family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors (7TM GPCRs)

mammalian taste receptor 2, subtype 3, member of the seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; This group includes the mammalian taste receptor 2 (TAS2R) subtype 3, which functions as a bitter taste receptor. The human TAS2R family contains about 25 functional members, which are glycoproteins and have the ability to form both homomeric and heteromeric receptor complexes. Five basic tastes are perceived by animals: bitter, sweet, sour, salty, and umami (the taste of glutamate, MSG). Among these, sour and salty are mediated by ion channels, while the perception of umami and sweet tastes is mediated by the TAS1R taste receptors, which belong to the class C GPCR family. The TAS2Rs in humans have a short extracellular N-terminus and the ligand binds within the transmembrane domain, whereas the TAS1Rs have a large N-terminal extracellular domain composed of the Venus flytrap module that forms the orthosteric (primary) ligand binding site. Signal transduction of bitter taste involves binding of bitter compounds to TAS2Rs linked to the alpha-subunit of gustducin, a heterotrimeric G protein expressed in taste receptor cells. This G-alpha subunit stimulates phosphodiesterase and decreases cAMP and cGMP levels. Further steps in the signaling cascade is still unknown. The beta-gamma-subunit of gustducin also mediates bitter taste transduction by activating phospholipase C, which leads to an increased formation of IP3 (inositol triphosphate) and DAG (diacylglycerol), thereby causing release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and enhanced neurotransmitter release.

mammalian taste receptor 2, subtype 8, member of the seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; This group includes the mammalian taste receptor 2 (TAS2R) subtype 8, which functions as a bitter taste receptor. The human TAS2R family contains about 25 functional members, which are glycoproteins and have the ability to form both homomeric and heteromeric receptor complexes. Five basic tastes are perceived by animals: bitter, sweet, sour, salty, and umami (the taste of glutamate, MSG). Among these, sour and salty are mediated by ion channels, while the perception of umami and sweet tastes is mediated by the TAS1R taste receptors, which belong to the class C GPCR family. The TAS2Rs in humans have a short extracellular N-terminus and the ligand binds within the transmembrane domain, whereas the TAS1Rs have a large N-terminal extracellular domain composed of the Venus flytrap module that forms the orthosteric (primary) ligand binding site. Signal transduction of bitter taste involves binding of bitter compounds to TAS2Rs linked to the alpha-subunit of gustducin, a heterotrimeric G protein expressed in taste receptor cells. This G-alpha subunit stimulates phosphodiesterase and decreases cAMP and cGMP levels. Further steps in the signaling cascade is still unknown. The beta-gamma-subunit of gustducin also mediates bitter taste transduction by activating phospholipase C, which leads to an increased formation of IP3 (inositol triphosphate) and DAG (diacylglycerol), thereby causing release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and enhanced neurotransmitter release.

The TAS2Rs in humans have a short extracellular N-terminus and the ligand binds within the transmembrane domain, whereas the TAS1Rs have a large N-terminal extracellular domain composed of the Venus flytrap module that forms the orthosteric (primary) ligand binding site. Signal transduction of bitter taste involves binding of bitter compounds to TAS2Rs linked to the alpha-subunit of gustducin, a heterotrimeric G protein expressed in taste receptor cells. This G-alpha subunit stimulates phosphodiesterase and decreases cAMP and cGMP levels. Further steps in the signaling cascade is still unknown. The beta-gamma-subunit of gustducin also mediates bitter taste transduction by activating phospholipase C, which leads to an increased formation of IP3 (inositol triphosphate) and DAG (diacylglycerol), thereby causing release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and enhanced neurotransmitter release.

mammalian taste receptor 2, subtype 38, member of the seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; This group includes the mammalian taste receptor 2 (T2R) subtype 38, which functions as a bitter taste receptor. Genetic variants of human TAS2R38 influence the ability to taste synthetic compounds 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) and phenylthiocarbamide (PTC). Thus, sensitivity to the bitter taste of PROP is often used as a marker for individual differences in taste perception that can affect food preferences and intake. The human TAS2R family contains about 25 functional members, which are glycoproteins and have the ability to form both homomeric and heteromeric receptor complexes. Five basic tastes are perceived by animals: bitter, sweet, sour, salty, and umami (the taste of glutamate, MSG). Among these, sour and salty are mediated by ion channels, while the perception of umami and sweet tastes is mediated by the TAS1R taste receptors, which belong to the class C GPCR family. The TAS2Rs in humans have a short extracellular N-terminus and the ligand binds within the transmembrane domain, whereas the TAS1Rs have a large N-terminal extracellular domain composed of the Venus flytrap module that forms the orthosteric (primary) ligand binding site. Signal transduction of bitter taste involves binding of bitter compounds to TAS2Rs linked to the alpha-subunit of gustducin, a heterotrimeric G protein expressed in taste receptor cells. This G-alpha subunit stimulates phosphodiesterase and decreases cAMP and cGMP levels. Further steps in the signaling cascade is still unknown. The beta-gamma-subunit of gustducin also mediates bitter taste transduction by activating phospholipase C, which leads to an increased formation of IP3 (inositol triphosphate) and DAG (diacylglycerol), thereby causing release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and enhanced neurotransmitter release.

mammalian taste receptor 2, subtype 16, member of the seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; This group includes the mammalian taste receptor 2 (TAS2R) subtype 16, which functions as a bitter taste receptor. The human TAS2R family contains about 25 functional members, which are glycoproteins and have the ability to form both homomeric and heteromeric receptor complexes. Five basic tastes are perceived by animals: bitter, sweet, sour, salty, and umami (the taste of glutamate, MSG). Among these, sour and salty are mediated by ion channels, while the perception of umami and sweet tastes is mediated by the TAS1R taste receptors, which belong to the class C GPCR family. The TAS2Rs in humans have a short extracellular N-terminus and the ligand binds within the transmembrane domain, whereas the TAS1Rs have a large N-terminal extracellular domain composed of the Venus flytrap module that forms the orthosteric (primary) ligand binding site. Signal transduction of bitter taste involves binding of bitter compounds to TAS2Rs linked to the alpha-subunit of gustducin, a heterotrimeric G protein expressed in taste receptor cells. This G-alpha subunit stimulates phosphodiesterase and decreases cAMP and cGMP levels. Further steps in the signaling cascade is still unknown. The beta-gamma-subunit of gustducin also mediates bitter taste transduction by activating phospholipase C, which leads to an increased formation of IP3 (inositol triphosphate) and DAG (diacylglycerol), thereby causing release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and enhanced neurotransmitter release.

8-287 1.81e-11

seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; This hierarchical evolutionary model represents the seven-transmembrane (7TM) receptors, often referred to as G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), which transmit physiological signals from the outside of the cell to the inside via G proteins. GPCRs constitute the largest known superfamily of transmembrane receptors across the three kingdoms of life that respond to a wide variety of extracellular stimuli including peptides, lipids, neurotransmitters, amino acids, hormones, and sensory stimuli such as light, smell and taste. All GPCRs share a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits. The activated G proteins then bind to and activate numerous downstream effector proteins, which generate second messengers that mediate a broad range of cellular and physiological processes. However, some 7TM receptors, such as the type 1 microbial rhodopsins, do not activate G proteins. Based on sequence similarity, GPCRs can be divided into six major classes: class A (the rhodopsin-like family), class B (the Methuselah-like, adhesion and secretin-like receptor family), class C (the metabotropic glutamate receptor family), class D (the fungal mating pheromone receptors), class E (the cAMP receptor family), and class F (the frizzled/smoothened receptor family). Nearly 800 human GPCR genes have been identified and are involved essentially in all major physiological processes. Approximately 40% of clinically marketed drugs mediate their effects through modulation of GPCR function for the treatment of a variety of human diseases including bacterial infections.
