Ligand binding modes from low resolution GPCR models and mutagenesis: chicken bitter taste receptor as a test-case
Abstract Bitter taste is one of the basic taste modalities, warning against consuming potential poisons. Bitter compounds activate members of the bitter taste receptor (Tas2r) subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). The number of functional Tas2rs is species-dependent. Chickens represent a...
