RECOMBINANT INSECT TASTE NEURON EXPRESSION SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a transformed drosophila having an exogenous chemical receptor such as a human taste substance receptor, etc., in a taste neuron, and a method for analyzing receptor characteristics and a receptor ligand using the transformed drosophila.SOLUTION: A method for preparing a transformed drosophila to express an exogenous chemical receptor in a taste neuron is provided. A method for preparing a transformed drosophila prepared by the preparation method is provided. A method for screening a chemical receptor ligand uses the transformed drosophila.
