Delineating muscarinic receptor functions [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999 Acetylcholine, as the first chemical molecule to be established as a neurotransmitter, has attracted enduring interest from researchers over several decades. However, deciphering all of the physiological manifestations associated with actions of this molecule has been difficult, and many mysteries of cholinergic neurotransmission still remain to be ...

A Revised Model for Muscarine Biosynthesis Involving Lysine Trimethylation
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.The fatal mushroom toxin l‐(+)‐muscarine is one of the most prominent natural products. We elucidated its biosynthetic origin in the sweating mushroom Collybia rivulosa based on incorporation of stable isotope‐labeled compounds and extensive mass spectrometric analyses.
