Tas2r107 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable taste receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of bitter taste. Predicted to be active in membrane. Orthologous to human TAS2R10 (taste 2 receptor member 10). [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 rat Tas2r107 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
