what receptors does ach bind to
Two Types of Receptors. There are two types of acetylcholine receptors (AChR) that bind acetylcholine and transmit its signal: muscarinic AChRs and nicotinic AChRs, which are named after the agonists muscarine and nicotine, respectively.he muscarinic AChRs occur primarily in the CNS, and are part of a large family of G-protein-coupled receptors (G proteins), which use an intracellular secondary messenger system involving an increase of intracellular calcium to transmit signals inside cells.
