Structures of the cat Tas1r2 and human TAS1R2 genes. The cat Tas1r2 gene has a 247-base pair micro-deletion (♠) in exon 3 and stop codons (*) in exons 4 and 6. The exons are shown as black bars; exon numbers and size (bp; shown in parentheses) are indicated above the bars. The % similarity between corresponding human and cat exons at the nucleotide level are indicated under the human exons. Introns are not scaled proportionally because of their large size.
