sensory perception of taste Gene Set
Dataset
GO Biological Process Annotations 2025
Category
structural or functional annotations
Type
biological process
Description
The series of events required for an organism to receive a gustatory stimulus, convert it to a molecular signal, and recognize and characterize the signal. Gustation involves the direct detection of chemical composition, usually through contact with chemoreceptor cells. This is a neurological process. (Gene Ontology , GO_0050909 )
