20130143772 | VARIANTS OF HUMAN TASTE RECEPTOR GENES - Identified herein are different forms of bitter receptor genes that occur in different humans.

Differences in these genes are believed to have a large effect on those individuals' sense of bitter taste, such that these individuals perceive the taste of bitter substances differently than the rest of the population. The ability to assay this allelic information is useful in the development of flavorings and flavor enhancers, as it can be used to define large groups and populations who perceive bitter tastes differently.
