Other Names | Taste receptor type 1 member 1, G-protein coupled receptor 70, TAS1R1, GPR70, T1R1, TR1 |
Target/Specificity | This TAS1R1 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 323-351 amino acids from the Central region of human TAS1R1. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | TAS1R1 Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | TAS1R1 |
---|---|
Synonyms | GPR70, T1R1, TR1 |
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. |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. |

Background
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.
