what are tha alanin and valine positions for taste intesnity imporance vs proline and alanine

A

49 and 262

107
Q

people that are homogenous for PTC sensitive form of tas2r taste what else as bitter

A

mustard greens
turnips
broccoli

108

why would someone who is pTC sensitive also dislike some veggies

A

these vegies contain glucosinolates which also has a thiourea moitey

109
Q

bitter sensitivity also applies to what

A

to some artificial sweeters since they use the same Tas2R receptor class

110
Q

what else besides bitter taste is controlled by genetics

A

receptors for sweet stimuli

111
Q

how is the sweet receptor differences occur

A

differences in the promoter region determine the number of copies of the sweet receptor ( controls intensity of the sweetness)

112
Q

difference in amount of sweet receptors leads to

A

differences in the most preferred sugar concentration

Q

staining for glial markers shows that type I cells do what

A

are supportive due to lack of microvilli and synapses
