It expresses many other gustatory receptors (including Gr66a, but not Gr32a) in addition to the core receptors expressed by bitter-sensing neurons of the leg and the sensillum it innervates can detect a wide range of bitter tastants (Ling et al., 2014). It passes through the prothoracic ganglion, then projects towards the head (Kwon et al., 2014).
