Taste receptor - Wikipedia
A taste receptor or tastant is a type of cellular receptor which facilitates the sensation of taste. When food or other substances enter the mouth, molecules interact with saliva and are bound to taste receptors in the oral cavity and other locations. Molecules which give a sensation of taste are considered "sapid".

Taste Receptor - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Taste stimuli can be categorized as belonging to one of at least five classes, comprising qualities perceived by humans as sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami (the savory taste of l -amino acids such as glutamate). Mammalian taste receptors that respond to sweet, bitter, and umami stimuli have been identified and functionally characterized.

Is receptor antagonism just long-term binding? By my understanding, a substance that binds to a receptor and activates it is called an agonist, while a substance that binds to a receptor without activating it is calle...
The details of activation vary by receptor of course, but talking in the popular key-lock picture:
* An agonist is a key, that fits the lock and opens

Does anyone know of any resources that detail an extensive number of receptor types, their effects, and signalling pathways? In a similar manner to this Wikipedia page, although I am not too concerned about the locali...
_From the comment section:_ The IUPHAR database is one of the most extensive database for receptors and ligands. It also contains a lot of additional information and direct references to the literature.
