α‐Conotoxin M1 (CTx) blocks αδ binding sites of adult nicotinic receptors while ACh binding at αε sites elicits only small and short quantal synaptic currents

In ‘embryonic’ nicotinic receptors, low CTx concentrations are known to block only the αδ binding site, whereas binding of ACh at the αγ‐site elicits short single channel openings and short bursts. In adult muscles the αγ‐ is replaced by the αε‐site. Quantal EPSCs (qEPSCs) were elicited in adult mus...
