Taste Processing: Whetting our appetites

Two G-protein-coupled receptors have been identified that are present in the apical membranes of rat and mouse taste cells and differentially distributed across the tongue and palate. They are strong candidates for being taste receptors and their discovery has provided new tools for research into gustatory processing.
