Application

Acetylcholine is an endogenous neurotransmitter at cholinergic synapses that amplifies action potential of the sarcolemma thereby inducing muscle contractions. Acetylcholine bromide is used as an acetylcholine receptor agonist to identify, characterize and differentiate among types of cholinergic receptors. Acetylcholine bromide is used as an inhibitor to identify and characterize natural and mutated butyrylcholinesterase(s).

Allosteric modulators are highly desirable as drugs, particularly for G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) targets, because allosteric drugs can achieve selectivity between closely related receptors. The mechanisms by which allosteric modulators achieve selectivity remain elusive, however, particularly given recent structures that reveal
