ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a screening system for modulators of GPCRs. Further it relates to recombinant vector systems for the heterologous expression of heterodimeric g-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) in eukaryotic host cells. Preferably the functional expression of engineered GPCRs for the perception of sweet and L-amino acid taste or more preferably the use of these receptors for the identification of functional ligands is also encompassed.
