Transport and storage of acetylcholine by purified Torpedo electric organ synaptic vesicles is blocked by the drug L-trans-2-(4-phenylpiperidino)cyclohexanol (AH-5183). This study sought evidence of a specific receptor for the drug. Highly tritiated L-trans-2-(4-phenyl [3,4-3H] piperidino)-cyclohexanol (L-[3H] AH5183) was synthesized. An
