Abstract

Background: BQCA is a selective allosteric modulator of the M1 mAChR.

Results: Residues that govern BQCA activity were identified using mutagenesis and molecular modelling.

Conclusion: BQCA likely occupies a pocket overlapping prototypical mAChR modulators and gains selectivity through coop- erativity with orthosteric ligands.

Significance: Understanding the structural basis of BQCA function can provide insight into the design of more tailored allosteric ligands.
