Human Gene TAS1R1 (ENST00000333172.11) from GENCODE V44
  Description: Homo sapiens taste 1 receptor member 1 (TAS1R1), transcript variant 2, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_138697)
RefSeq Summary (NM_138697): The protein encoded by this gene is a G protein-coupled receptor and is a component of the heterodimeric amino acid taste receptor T1R1+3. The T1R1+3 receptor responds to L-amino acids but not to D-enantiomers or other compounds. Most amino acids that are perceived as sweet activate T1R1+3, and this activation is strictly dependent on an intact T1R1+3 heterodimer. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010].

  ID: TS1R1_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Taste receptor type 1 member 1; AltName: Full=G-protein coupled receptor 70; Flags: Precursor;
FUNCTION: Putative taste receptor. TAS1R1/TAS1R3 responds to the umami taste stimulus (the taste of monosodium glutamate). Sequence differences within and between species can significantly influence the selectivity and specificity of taste responses.
SUBUNIT: Forms heterodimers with TAS1R3.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 3 family. TAS1R subfamily.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
