Stability Test
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37℃ for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate isless than 8% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
-
Storage & Shelf Life
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
-
Shipping
In general, recombinant proteins are supplied as lyophilized powder and shipped at ambient temperature. For bulk packages, the proteins are provided as frozen liquid and shipped with blue ice, unless otherwise requested by the customer.

Protein Description
TAS2R1 is one of the receptors belonging to the TAS2R family, responsible for the detection of bitter taste compounds. Research into TAS2R1 has gained significant attention due to its role in taste perception and its potential implications for nutrition, flavor preference, and even aversion to certain toxic substances. Understanding TAS2R1 can provide insights into the evolutionary mechanisms of taste and how various species adapt their feeding behavior to avoid harmful compounds. Moreover, TAS2R1 has been implicated in various physiological processes beyond taste, including responses to bitter compounds that may play a role in digestive function and appetite regulation. The study of TAS2R1 recombinant proteins allows scientists to explore the structure-function relationship of the receptor, enabling the identification of its binding sites and the interactions with bitter ligands. This research can pave the way for advancements in flavor enhancement, food industry applications, and the development of strategies to manage dietary habits and health outcomes by influencing bitter taste perception. Understanding the mechanisms of TAS2R1 can ultimately contribute to a broader understanding of taste biology and its implications for human health and disease.
