Genes affected

TAS2R40 (HGNC:18885): (taste 2 receptor member 40) This gene encodes a member of the bitter taste receptor family which belong to the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily and are predominantly expressed in taste receptor cells of the tongue and palate epithelia. This intronless taste receptor gene encodes a seven-transmembrane receptor protein, functioning as a bitter taste receptor. This gene is clustered together with eight other taste receptor genes on chromosome 7. A decrease in the expression of this gene is associated with hypogeusia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

The c.128A>G (p.Y43C) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the TAS2R40 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 128, causing the tyrosine (Y) at amino acid position 43 to be replaced by a cysteine (C). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
