Anti-PTC antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the PTC antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the TAS2R38 gene, which encodes taste 2 receptor member 38. This protein is a known receptor that may play a role in the perception of bitterness and is gustducin-linked. The human version of PTC has a canonical amino acid length of 333 residues and a protein mass of 37.9 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the membrane of cells. PTC is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor T2R protein family. Indicated applications for PTC antibodies listed below include ELISA and Western Blot.
