Muscle-synapse cell-surface receptors {nicotinic cholinergic receptor} can bind acetylcholine. Nicotinic receptors have membrane alpha-helix pores. Acetylcholine binds to two alpha helices. Four genes make protein receptors. Gene alleles have different mRNA splicings, making many slightly different nicotinic cholinergic receptors.
