Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

A receptor that binds an extracellular ligand and transmits the signal to a heterotrimeric G-protein complex. These receptors are characteristically seven-transmembrane receptors and are made up of hetero- or homodimers. Combining with soluble compounds to initiate a change in cell activity. These receptors are responsible for the sense of taste. Combining with soluble sweet compounds to initiate a change in cell activity. These receptors are responsible for the sense of sweet taste.
