From: The Secrets of a Functional Synapse – From a Computational and Experimental Viewpoint
A schematic view of an ACh synapse. Molecules that specify the NT phenotype are marked A-F. A, a representative of ACh ligand binding receptor family; B, muscarinic ACh receptor as presynaptic autoinhibitors; C, Acetylcolinesterase, AchE; D, Choline high affinity transporter; E, Choline Acetyle Transferase, ChAT; F, Vesicular ACh transporter, VAChT. E and F proteins comprise the 'cholinergic locus' (see text).
