They screened these by assuming that a taste receptor would only be found in a small number of tissue types (specifically tongue taste cells). That whittled the list down to 900.
他們通過假設(shè)味覺受體應(yīng)該只在很少種類的組織（特別是舌味覺細胞）中被發(fā)現(xiàn)，把名單縮減到900個。
Teixeria has already determined that the sweetness of thaumatin is related to the specific charges across a large surface area over which thaumatin can bind to the principle human taste receptor.
