Behavioral specificity of the bitter taste gene Soa.

Physiology & behavior - 31 Dec 1997

Boughter J D, Whitney G

Abstract excerpt

In mice, aversion to the bitter acetylated sugar sucrose octaacetate (SOA) is determined by a single genetic locus with three alleles. SWR/J (SW) inbred mice are SOA tasters: They avoid many compounds characterized as bitter-tasting by humans, at concentrations to which C3HeB/FeJ (C3:SOA demitasters) mice are less sensitive. C3.SW-Soa(a) congenic taster mice contain the taster allele transposed to a 99% C3...
