Humans sense taste and smell of various chemical substances through approximately 430 chemosensory receptors. The overall picture of ligand-chemosensory receptor interactions has been partially clarified because of numerous interactions. This study presents a new method that enables a rapid and simple screening of chemosensory receptors. It would be useful for identifying chemosensory receptors activated by taste and odor substances.
