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). The selective, non-covalent, often stoichiometric, interaction of a molecule with one or more specific sites on another molecule. Combining with a neurotransmitter to initiate a change in cell activity. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any hormone, naturally occurring substances secreted by specialized cells that affect the metabolism or behavior of other cells possessing functional receptors for the hormone. 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 a neuropeptide to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with melanocortin to initiate a change in cell activity.
