Meaty Aroma Compounds Enhance MSG Umami Perception Through Allosteric Modulation of T1R1/T1R3 Receptor: Evidence from Nasal Clip Sensory Evaluation and Molecular Dynamics Simulation

Background: Understanding how aroma compounds enhance monosodium glutamate (MSG) umami perception remains a critical challenge in flavor science. Methods: The umami-enhancing effects of meaty flavorings were investigated using nasal clip sensory evaluation (orthonasal blockage). Active aroma compoun...
