Interacting selectively and non-covalently with peptides, any of a group of organic compounds comprising two or more amino acids linked by peptide bonds. Combining with bombesin to initiate a change in cell activity. A receptor that binds an extracellular ligand and transmits the signal to a heterotrimeric G-protein complex. These receptors are characteristically seven-transmembrane receptors and are made up of hetero- or homodimers. Combining with an extracellular or intracellular peptide to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with a neurotransmitter to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with adrenocorticotropin to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with an extracellular or intracellular peptide to initiate a G-protein mediated change in cell activity. A G-protein is a signal transduction molecule that alternates between an inactive GDP-bound and an active GTP-bound state. Combining with galanin to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with beta-endorphin to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with a neuropeptide to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with the neuropeptide corazonin to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with tachykinin to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with somatostatin to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with the neuropeptide proctolin, to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with neuropeptide Y to initiate a change in cell activity. Interacting selectively and non-covalently and stoichiometrically with neuropeptides, peptides with direct synaptic effects (peptide neurotransmitters) or indirect modulatory effects on the nervous system (peptide neuromodulators). Combining with neuromedin U to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with neuropeptide F, an invertebrate neuropeptide thought to play a role in neuroregulation, to initiate a change in cell activity. In many species, neuropeptide F is between 36 and 39 amino acid residues terminating in a phenylalaninamide residue. Combining with a cholecystokinin, any of a group of related neuropeptides secreted by the upper intestinal mucosa and also found in the central nervous system, to initiate a change in cell activity. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a neurotransmitter, any chemical substance that is capable of transmitting (or inhibiting the transmission of) a nerve impulse from a neuron to another cell. Combining with an extracellular or intracellular messenger to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with the tridecapeptide neurotensin to initiate a G-protein mediated change in cell activity. A G-protein is a signal transduction molecule that alternates between an inactive GDP-bound and an active GTP-bound state.
