Summary: Enables ionotropic sweet taste receptor activity; ligand-gated monoatomic cation channel activity; and sweet taste receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including adult feeding behavior; cellular response to fructose stimulus; and sensory perception of sweet taste. Is active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including adult sensillum; ganglia; gustatory receptor neurons; gut section; and tarsal segment 5. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
