Miraculin is a glycoprotein present in the fruit of Synsepalum dulcificum (a tropical fruit known as miracle berry). Although it is tasteless, it has the property of giving sour solutions a sweet taste and therefore it is called a taste modifier. Thus, lemon juice seems sweet when the mouth is first rinsed with a solution of miraculin. The molecular weight of this taste modifier is 42-44 kdal. [Pg.438]
