Abstract: | Using electron spin resonance spectroscopy and a spin-labeled analog of a tertiary amine local anesthetic, we have identified several populations of the local anesthetic within reconstituted lipid membranes containing purified acetylcholine receptors. These populations represent the local anesthetic interacting with membrane lipid and with the acetylcholine receptor. The data also suggest the existence of at least two classes of binding sites for the local anesthetic on the acetylcholine receptor. |
