Data Sheet

Background: The human muscarinic M4 receptor is a 479-amino acid, 7- transmembrane protein. In heart muscle, M4 receptors are coupled to specific K+ currents that regulate cardiac muscle contractions. They can also be found in tissues of the central nervous system and bladder.

Application: Functional assays
