Summary: Predicted to enable ligand-gated monoatomic ion channel activity and taste receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including chemosensory behavior; male courtship behavior; and sensory perception of taste. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including axon; dendrite; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in gustatory receptor neuron of terminal organ and larval gnathal ganglion.
