How can you use “acetylcholine” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are ion channels threaded through cell membranes.
It is now conventional wisdom that acetylcholine and nicotine act at these receptors to alter electrochemical properties at a variety of synapses, which can in turn affect the release of several other neurotransmitters.
A formal charge of +1 was assigned to the quaternary ammonium group of acetylcholine and protonated nicotine.
Recently, Sixma and colleagues have determined the first high-resolution structure of a soluble acetylcholine binding protein (AChBP), extracted from snail neurons, and homologous to the ligand binding domain of nAChR [ 6 ] . Based on this high-resolution crystal structure, we have built an atomic model of the agonist binding site of nAChR, and docked acetylcholine and nicotine to different receptor isotypes.
Acetylcholine fits tightly into the agonist binding site at the alpha4-beta2 interface of nAChR (Figure 2).
