Histological analysis shows that about 2/3 of the TRPM5+ cells express gustducin, so the values in the table are to be expected if only the gustducin+ cells are the ones responding to denatonium (2/3 × 76.6% = 51.2%).
| Mouse Type | Percentage of Cells Responding to Denatonium | Number of Cells Tested |
|---|---|---|
| TRPM5-GFP | 52.8 | 125 |
| Gustducin-GFP | 76.6 | 47 |
