In order to compare characteristics of benzomorphan and phencyclidine receptors, binding of the ligands [3H]SKF10047 and [3H]phencyclidine (PCP) was measured in intact rat synaptosomal membranes and in membranes treated with a detergent (CHAPS, a twitterionic derivative of cholic acid). Ligand binding was quantified in the particle containing fractions and in particle-free supernatants. About 20% of the SKF binding sites could be solubilized from the membranes by CHAPS under the conditions used here, while all PCP binding sites remained associated to particles. This observation and the inhibition patterns found for the two ligands indicate that the PCP receptors and the SKF receptors as delineated in this paper are indeed separate.
