This protein enables 4 target(s):

Target	Category	Definition
G protein-coupled receptor activity	molecular function	Combining with an extracellular signal and transmitting the signal across the membrane by activating an associated G-protein; promotes the exchange of GDP for GTP on the alpha subunit of a heterotrimeric G-protein complex. [GOC:bf, http://www.iuphar-db.org, Wikipedia:GPCR]
protein binding	molecular function	Binding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators]
taste receptor activity	molecular function	Combining with soluble compounds to initiate a change in cell activity. These receptors are responsible for the sense of taste. [GOC:dph]
bitter taste receptor activity	molecular function	Combining with soluble bitter compounds to initiate a change in cell activity. These receptors are responsible for the sense of bitter taste. [GOC:mah]

This protein is involved in 3 target(s):

Target	Category	Definition
detection of chemical stimulus involved in sensory perception of bitter taste	biological process	The series of events required for a bitter taste stimulus to be received and converted to a molecular signal. [GOC:go_curators]
G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway	biological process	The series of molecular signals initiated by a ligand binding to its receptor, in which the activated receptor promotes the exchange of GDP for GTP on the alpha-subunit of an associated heterotrimeric G-protein complex. The GTP-bound activated alpha-G-protein then dissociates from the beta- and gamma-subunits to further transmit the signal within the cell. The pathway begins with receptor-ligand interaction, and ends with regulation of a downstream cellular process. The pathway can start from the plasma membrane, Golgi or nuclear membrane.

chemosensory behavior	biological process	Behavior that is dependent upon the sensation of chemicals. [GOC:go_curators]
