About TAS2R5

Cytogenetic location: 7q34 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:141,790,217-141,791,367 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 125 orthologues and 23 paralogues.

Summary

This gene encodes a bitter taste receptor; bitter taste receptors are members of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily and are specifically expressed by Taste Receptor cells of the tongue and palate epithelia. Each of these apparently intronless Taste Receptor genes encodes a 7-transmembrane receptor protein, functioning as a bitter Taste Receptor. This gene is clustered with another 3 candidate Taste Receptor genes on chromosome 7 and is genetically linked to loci that influence bitter perception. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
