Gustducin-coupled receptor implicated in the perception of bitter compounds in the oral cavity and the gastrointestinal tract. Signals through PLCB2 and the calcium-regulated cation channel TRPM5.
Gene References into Functions
We did not find any statistically significant association between risk of developing sporadic colorectal cancer and selected single nucleotide polymorphisms. However, after stratification by histology (colon vs. rectum) we found that rs1525489 was associated with increased risk of rectal cancer with a (Ptrend of = 0.0071).PMID:28915899
genetic association studies in populations in Northern Europe, Maghreb, and Sri Lanka: Data suggest that SNPs in TAS2R50 (rs1376251), TRPM5 (rs800345), and TAS2R16 (rs860170) are associated with cultural food preferences; TAS2R16 (rs860170) strongly differentiates populations and is associated to salicin bitterness perception.
