Target Information
In felines, taste receptor type 1 member 3 (TAS1R3) is a G protein-coupled receptor involved in taste perception, particularly for sweet and umami flavors. TAS1R3 forms heterodimeric receptors with TAS1R1 (for umami taste) or TAS1R2 (for sweet taste). Additionally, TAS1R3 is expressed in the gut, where it regulates pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion through the mTOR-PPARγ axis, influencing gut inflammation and microbiota composition. In the feline taste system, TAS1R3 likely plays an important role in dietary selection and nutrient intake, especially in detecting sweet and umami components in food.
