Taste receptors for bitter substances (T2Rs/TAS2Rs) belong to the family of G-protein coupled receptors and are related to class A-like GPCRs. There are 25 known T2Rs in humans responsible for bitter taste perception.[5]

Taste receptor type 2 member 46 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TAS2R46 gene.[6][7]
