TAS2R16 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein taste 2 receptor member 16, which is encoded by the TAS2R16 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 291 residues, a mass of 34 kDa, and is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor T2R protein family. It is known to be localized in the cell membrane and is reported to be expressed in a subset of gustducin-positive taste receptor cells of the tongue. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include T2R16, taste receptor type 2 member 16, candidate taste receptor T2R16, taste receptor, type 2, member 16, and BGLPT.
