Abstract
null null Background null The human taste experience is the result of five basic taste qualities, namely sweet, salty, bitter, sour and umami. Sweet, bitter, and umami are mediated by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), whereas sour and salt are modulated by specialized membrane channels. Taste perception starts with the interaction between a taste-active molecule (substance) and a specialized receptor located on the taste buds at the level of...
