We have found that the acetylcholine receptor (AChR) of Torpedo californica is phosphorylated and dephosphorylated in situ by a membrane-bound protein kinase and phosphatase [1]. There is increasing evidence that other neurotransmitters [2], light [3-6], polypeptide hormones [7], and growth factors
## Abstract Purified postsynaptic membranes can be used as a model system to study the regulation of synaptic membrane proteins. These membranes contain protein kinase activity that phosphorylates the acetylcholine receptor (AChR). We find that diphenylhydantoin (DPH) interacts with these membranes
