The receptors for mammalian sweet and umami taste

Article Abstract:

Research points out that sweet and umami tastes are mediated by T1R receptors, suggesting that any alteration in the receptors will adversely affect these taste modalities. Further, the study reveals that it is the activation of sweet-receptor-expressing cells that determine behavioral attraction to sweet tastants, rather than the T1R receptors per se.

Polar explorers: membrane proteins that determine division site placement

Article Abstract:

The authors review publications on the ability of the living organisms to place the division site at a specified position within the cell. The topics of interest include the polar zone assembly and disassembly, the MinCDE protein functions and the E-ring formation.

Mammalian sweet taste receptors

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on the mammalian sweet taste receptors. The characterization of these receptors has been carried out and the results indicate that T1R2 and T1R3 combine to function as a sweet receptor.
