Embodiment I

[0239] Embodiment 1: Cloning and expression of TCP#1-#3

[0240] A cDNA library of rat peripheral and fungiform single cells was used to clone and isolate taste cell-specific nucleic acids of the invention.

[0241]Single taste receptor cells were isolated from dissociated peripheral papillae as described by Bernhardt et al., J. Physiol. 490:325-336 (1996). Single cells isolated from 20 rat papillae (batches of 20) yielded 280 single cell cDNA populations according to the method of Dulac & Axel, Cell 83: 195-206 (1995). Southern and dot blot analysis of amplified single-cell cDNA probed with radiolabeled probes to identify similar cell types. Gustduein, a G protein expressed specifically in a subset of taste receptor cells, was chosen as a marker for taste cells (McLaughlin et al., supra). Cell integrity was confirmed with Tubulin and N-Cam, and amplification reactions were verified.

[0242] A lambda phage cDNA library was then constructed from each Gustducin-positive cell...
