    Summary
    Predicted to enable bitter taste receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of bitter taste and positive regulation of cytokinesis. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in membrane. Orthologous to human TAS2R13 (taste 2 receptor member 13). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

    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.
