generate a synthetic DNA harboring the wildtype and mutant alleles (SNP) for the ability to sense taste which will be used as control for the Taqman assays and for preforming CRISPR on the mutant SNP allele, to convert it to the wildtype allele, as a feasibility test to be able to change people's taste sense and help them to consume necessary oral medications even if they taste very bitter to them.

The ability of humans to sense food taste is driven in part by genetic polymorphisms in the taste receptor cells (TRCs) organized in taste buds located within gustatory papillae. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in genes encoding to taste receptors (belonging to the G-proteins coupled receptors family) have been found to influence peoples abilities to taste bitter (PTC, Coffee, Grapefruit juice), sweet, umami (Monosodium gluten), salts, Cilantro preference and more. People's ability to consume oral medications is driven in part by their sensitivity to drug bitterness.

We generate a SNPs gene panel- with those bio bricks which can determine people's preference of food tastes using Taqman assay on the Fluidigm nano-fluidic gene dynamic array chips (96:96). Endpoint fluorescent image data is acquired on the BioMark™ System for genetic analysis and data is analyzed using the Fluidigm SNP Genotyping Analysis software, to obtain genotype calls. In addition to saliva collection from students volunteering to participate, after completing their phenotypes forms of response to food tastes, we generate a synthetic DNA harboring the wildtype and mutant alleles (SNP) for the ability to sense taste which will be used as control for the Taqman assays.
