In addition, metabotropic glutamate receptors (brain and taste variants of mGluR1 and mGluR4) are thought to function as umami taste receptors. To elucidate the function of T1R1 and the contribution of mGluRs to umami taste detection in vivo, we used newly developed knock-out (T1R1(-/-)) mice, which lack the entire coding region of the Tas1r1 gene and express mCherry in T1R1-expressing cells. Gustatory nerve recordings demonstrated that T1R1(-/-) mice exhibited a serious deficit in inosine monophosphate-elicited synergy but substantial residual responses to glutamate alone in both chorda tympani and glossopharyngeal nerves. Interestingly, chorda tympani nerve responses to sweeteners were smaller in T1R1(-/-) mice. Taste cell recordings demonstrated that many mCherry-expressing taste cells in T1R1(+/-) mice responded to sweet and umami compounds, whereas those in T1R1(-/-) mice responded to sweet stimuli. The proportion of sweet-responsive cells was smaller in T1R1(-/-) than in T1R1(+/-) mice. Single-cell RT-PCR demonstrated that some single mCherry-expressing cells expressed all three T1R subunits. Chorda tympani and glossopharyngeal nerve responses to glutamate were significantly inhibited by addition of mGluR antagonists in both T1R1(-/-) and T1R1(+/-) mice. Conditioned taste aversion tests demonstrated that both T1R1(-/-) and T1R1(+/-) mice were equally capable of discriminating glutamate from other basic taste stimuli. Avoidance conditioned to glutamate was significantly reduced by addition of mGluR antagonists.
