TAS2R40 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein taste 2 receptor member 40, which is encoded by the TAS2R40 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be a gustducin-coupled receptor implicated in the perception of bitter compounds in the oral cavity and the gastrointestinal tract. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 323 residues, a mass of 36.8 kDa, and is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor T2R protein family. It is known to be localized in the membrane and is reported to be expressed in subsets of taste receptor cells of the tongue and exclusively in gustducin-positive cells. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include G-protein coupled receptor 60, taste receptor type 2 member 58, taste receptor, type 2, member 40, and taste receptor type 2 member 40.
