Also known as: T2R4; Tas2r10
Summary: Predicted to enable taste receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of bitter taste. Predicted to be active in membrane. Orthologous to human TAS2R10 (taste 2 receptor member 10). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Gene expression frequency of TAS2R40 and TAS2R107 on the tongue significantly decreased in rats fed a zinc-deficient diet, and frequency of TAS2R107 significantly increased following zinc administration.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
