Variants of human taste receptor genes

Identified herein are different forms of bitter receptor genes that occur in different humans. These alleles are generated by numerous coding single nucleotide polymorphisms (cSNP's) that occur within the members of the T2R gene family. Some SNP's cause amino acid substitutions, while others introduce chain termination codons, rendering the allele non-functional. Differences in these genes are believed to have a large effect on those individuals' sense of bitter taste, such that these individuals perceive the taste of bitter substances differently than the rest of the population. The ability to assay this allelic information is useful in the development of flavorings and flavor enhancers, as it can be used to define large groups and populations who perceive bitter tastes differently. This in turn allows the taste preferences of these groups to be addressed at the molecular level for the first time.

This invention provides isolated nucleic acid and amino acid sequences of gastrointestinal endocrine cell specific G-protein coupled receptors, methods of detecting such receptors, and methods of screening for ligands of such receptors. Furthermore, this invention demonstrates that SrC-1 enteroendocrine cells express multiple bitter taste receptors as well as a-subunits of G proteins that mediate taste signal transduction and respond to bitter taste compounds initiating changes in intracellular calcium concentration. Given that at present there are no cultured cell model system to determine the functional effects of taste receptor-mediated signaling, our findings identify STC-1 cells as a cell model for studying taste-mediated signal transduction.

The invention relates to new use of piperine and application of the piperine in preparation of an agonist of a human bitter receptor 14 subtype (hTAS2R14). The piperine can be used for increasing an mRNA level and protein expression of the hTAS2R14 in enteroendocrine cell cells Caco-2, increasing protein expression of downstream phospholipase C beta 2 and transient receptor potential ion channel protein M5, and increasing mobilization of intracellular calcium, and then, the gene expression of a glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) precursor proglucagon and the secretion of the GLP-1 are improved. The hTAS2R14 agonist 6-methoxyflavone does not weaken the mobilization effect of the piperine on the intracellular calcium, but promotes the mobilization of the piperine on the intracellular calcium. A G beta gamma subunit inhibitor of the G protein coupled with the hTAS2R14 obviously weakens the secretion of the piperine to the GLP-1, and the phospholipase C beta 2 inhibitor obviously weakens the secretion of the piperine to the GLP-1. The research shows that the piperine is an efficient agonist of the hTAS2R14.

Food Protein-Derived Peptides as Bitter Taste Blockers

PendingUS20210045419A1Compound screeningApoptosis detectionHeterologousCalcium mobilization
Beef protein was hydrolyzed with each of six commercial enzymes (alcalase, chymotrypsin, trypsin, pepsin, flavourzyme, and thermoase). Electronic tongue measurements showed that the hydrolysates had significantly (p<0.05) lower bitter scores than quinine. Addition of the hydrolysates to quinine led to reduced bitterness intensity of quinine with trypsin and pepsin hydrolysates being the most effective. Addition of the hydrolysates to HEK293T cells that heterologously express one of the bitter taste receptors (T2R4) showed alcalase, thermoase, pepsin and trypsin hydrolysates as the most effective in reducing calcium mobilization. Eight peptides that were identified from the alcalase and chymotrypsin hydrolysates also suppressed bitter agonist-dependent calcium release from T2R4 and T2R14 with AGDDAPRAVF and ETSARHL being the most effective.
