The nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) is the prototype of an integral signal transducer: it contains in its protein moiety the binding sites for acetylcholine (ACh) and its agonists and antagonists (receptor function), the ligand-gated cation channel (response function) and several types of modulator sites (modulation function); nAChRs are components of all vertebrate neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) and of many nerve-nerve junctions. The nAChR was the first neuroreceptor to be isolated, to be biochemically and biophysically characterized, to be reconstituted into artificial bilayers and to be cloned and sequenced. Its electrical properties can be studied on the single-channel level. Ligand binding, agonist-induced ion fluxes and the modulation of these by local anaesthetics can be studied by time-resolved methods and has led to the formulation of models for the interaction of ligand binding sites and for channel activation and closing. Taken together, this remarkable progress may well make the nAChR the first signal transducer of the nervous system to be thoroughly understood on the molecular level.
