Receptor Polymorphism and Genomic Structure Interact to Shape Bitter Taste Perception

The ability to taste bitterness evolved to safeguard most animals, including humans, against potentially toxic substances, thereby leading to food rejection. Nonetheless, bitter perception is subject to individual variations due to the presence of genetic functional polymorphisms in bitter taste rec...
