TAS2R5 (Taste receptor type 2 member 5) variants and mutations

TAS2R5 (also known as Taste receptor type 2 member 5) is a human protein-coding gene encoding a taste receptor type 2 member 5 protein. A G protein-coupled bitter-taste receptor expressed in subsets of taste cells. It can signal through gustducin, PLC-beta2, and TRPM5 to help detect the chemical composition of food and other substances. This analysis covers 627 TAS2R5 variants and mutations. Of these, 99% have computational variant effect predictions. Disease context includes venous thromboembolism, colorectal adenocarcinoma, and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Example TAS2R5 variants include L2L, S3G, and S3N.
