Schematic of umami receptor structure and ORF-disrupting mutations of TAS1R genes . (A) Schematic of umami receptor structure. ORF-disrupting mutations are marked. (B) ORF-disrupting mutations. A1 and A2 denote the pair of TAS1R1 alleles of Pygathrix nemaeus. The first line of each aligned group is intact sequence. The codon that contains the ORF-disrupting mutation (marked with red and underlined) is indicated by a box.
