1 | Employing a differential screening strategy, we identified a taste receptor gene, Tre1, that controls the taste sensitivity to trehalose in Drosophila melanogaster. | Trehalose | Trapped in endoderm 1 | Drosophila melanogaster |
2 | Disruption of the Tre1 gene lowered the taste sensitivity to trehalose, whereas sensitivities to other sugars were unaltered. | Trehalose | Trapped in endoderm 1 | Drosophila melanogaster |
3 | Overexpression of the Tre1 gene restored the taste sensitivity to trehalose in the Tre1 deletion mutant. | Trehalose | Trapped in endoderm 1 | Drosophila melanogaster |
4 | Overexpression of the Tre1 gene restored the taste sensitivity to trehalose in the Tre1 deletion mutant. | Trehalose | Trapped in endoderm 1 | Drosophila melanogaster |
5 | These results provide direct evidence that Tre1 encodes a putative taste receptor for trehalose in Drosophila. | Trehalose | Trapped in endoderm 1 | Drosophila melanogaster |
