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 a neurotransmitter to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with pancreatic polypeptide PP to initiate a change in cell activity. Combining with gut peptide YY 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.
