DescriptionAnti-Gustducin alpha-3 chain
Alternate Names
  • Gustducin alpha-3 chain
  • Guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(t) subunit alpha-3
Background InformationGustducin alpha-3 chain is a G protein alpha subunit of the taste receptors and it plays a critical role in bitter, sweet and umami (MSG) taste transduction. Gustducin alpha-3 chain operates via the cGMP-phosphodiesterase signaling pathway and is mediated with calcium. Gustducin alpha-3 chain also functions in lumenal sugar sensors in the gut and may modulate the gut capacity to absorb sugars and thus play roles in malabsorption syndromes and diet related disorders including diabetes type II and obesity. Gustducin alpha-3 chain is localized to the cytoplasm and plasmalemmal being a G protein subunit. Gustducin alpha-3 chain is expressed in tastebuds and in the gut in enteroendocrine L cells, and surprisingly in spermatozoa.
