      Drug Name Benzatropine Tranylcypromine
      Mechanism Anticholinergic effects
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor  Antagonist
Anticholinergic effects
Monoamine oxidase non-selective  Inhibitor
      Key Mechanism Factor 1
Factor Name Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M Structure Sequence
Protein Family G-protein coupled receptor 1 family
Protein Function
The muscarinic acetylcholine receptor mediates various cellular responses, including inhibition of adenylate cyclase, breakdown of phosphoinositides and modulation of potassium channels through the action of G proteins. Primary transducing effect is Pi turnover.

      Key Mechanism Factor 2
Factor Name Monoamine oxidase Structure Sequence
Protein Family Flavin monoamine oxidase family
Protein Function
Catalyzes the oxidative deamination of primary and some secondary amine such as neurotransmitters, with concomitant reduction of oxygen to hydrogen peroxide and has important functions in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues (PubMed:20493079, PubMed:8316221, PubMed:18391214, PubMed:24169519). Preferentially oxidizes serotonin (PubMed:20493079, PubMed:24169519). Also catalyzes the oxidative deamination of kynuramine to 3-(2-aminophenyl)-3-oxopropanal that can spontaneously condense to 4-hydroxyquinoline (By similarity).
