CC -!- FUNCTION: Suppresses strongly the sweet taste responses in the rat with
CC high specificity to sucrose, glucose, glycine, and saccharin. This
CC effect is reversible, but complete recovery of the suppressed responses
CC required at least 3h. Gurmarin showed no effect or only a very weak
CC effect on the sweet taste sensation in humans.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The presence of a 'disulfide through disulfide knot'
CC structurally defines this protein as a knottin.
