A ball-and-stick structural diagram of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh), a small ester and quaternary ammonium molecule studied in neurochemistry and physiology. The figure shows an acetyl group linked via an ester oxygen to an ethylene chain ending in a trimethylammonium cation. At the biological hierarchy level, it is a molecule within the nervous system that mediates cholinergic signaling in synaptic clefts, notably at the neuromuscular junction, activating nicotinic (nAChR) and muscarinic (mAChR) acetylcholine receptors to drive muscle contraction and autonomic modulation.
