Summary

TAS1R3 (taste 1 receptor member 3, HGNC:15661) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1p36.33, encoding Taste receptor type 1 member 3 (Q7RTX0). Putative taste receptor.

The protein encoded by this gene is a G-protein coupled receptor involved in taste responses. The encoded protein can form a heterodimeric receptor with TAS1R1 to elicit the umami taste response, or it can bind with TAS1R2 to form a receptor for the sweet taste response.
