Enables
This protein enables 3 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] |
| 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] |
Located In
This protein is located in 3 target(s):
| Target | Category | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| plasma membrane | cellular component | The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins. [ISBN:0716731363] |
| membrane | cellular component | A lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it and attached to it. [GOC:dos, GOC:mah, ISBN:0815316194] |
| ciliary membrane | cellular component | The portion of the plasma membrane surrounding a cilium. [GOC:cilia, GOC:dph, GOC:rph] |

Involved In
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.

| respiratory gaseous exchange by respiratory system | biological process | The process of gaseous exchange between an organism and its environment. In plants, microorganisms, and many small animals, air or water makes direct contact with the organism's cells or tissue fluids, and the processes of diffusion supply the organism with dioxygen (O2) and remove carbon dioxide (CO2). In larger animals the efficiency of gaseous exchange is improved by specialized respiratory organs, such as lungs and gills, which are ventilated by breathing mechanisms. [ISBN:0198506732] |
