Abstract
Fatty acylated dipeptides homologous to G(i)alpha N-termini affect ligand b inding to muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Myristylglycine-serine contai ning dipeptides decrease antagonist binding at both M-i, and M-2, muscarini c receptors. Palmitate on the serine analogous to native palmitoylated cyst eine affords dipeptide which selectively decreases the number of high affin ity agonist binding sites at M-2, but not M-1 receptor.
