Anti-Taste Receptor, Type 2, Member 5 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the Taste Receptor, Type 2, Member 5 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the TAS2R5 gene, which encodes taste 2 receptor member 5. This protein is a known receptor that may play a role in the perception of bitterness and is gustducin-linked. The human version of Taste Receptor, Type 2, Member 5 has a canonical amino acid length of 299 residues and a protein mass of 34.5 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the membrane of cells. Other names for this target antigen include T2R5, T2R5, and taste receptor type 2 member 5.
