Tas2r102 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable bitter taste receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of bitter taste and positive regulation of cytokinesis. Predicted to be active in membrane. Orthologous to human TAS2R13 (taste 2 receptor member 13). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Tas2r102 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- G-protein coupled receptor
- taste receptor
- Taste receptor protein (TAS2R)
- seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily
