The M2 muscarinic receptor is a typical G protein–coupled receptors with inhibitory properties. Behind its canonically physiological role in the nervous system, previous studies demonstrated that its selective activation causes inhibitory effects in ...

The coupling of the M2 muscarinic receptor to its G protein is voltage dependent.
G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) participate in the majority of signal transduction processes in the body. Specifically, the binding of an external agonist promotes coupling of the GPCR to its G protein and this, in turn, induces downstream signaling.

Voltage dependence of M2 muscarinic receptor antagonists and allosteric modulators
Muscarinic receptors are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that play a role in various physiological functions. Previous studies have shown that these receptors, along with other GPCRs, are voltage-sensitive; both their affinity toward agonists and their activation are regulated by membrane potential.
