Receptors {cell-surface receptor} can use hundreds of genes.
peptides
Cell-surface receptors can bind acetylcholine, glutamate, glycine, and gamma-aminobutyric acid and endorphin and enkephalin peptides. Acetylcholine binds to sodium-ion-channel receptor. Glutamate binds to NMDA receptor. Glycine and GABA bind to chloride-ion-channel receptors. Receptor proteins using G proteins can couple to ion-channel proteins. Same-type receptors can have variable binding affinity and transport efficacy.
