Enables neurotransmitter receptor activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential. Acts upstream of or within regulation of locomotion. Located in cholinergic synapse. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse. Is integral component of postsynaptic membrane. Is expressed in central nervous system; retina; and urinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome; asthma; and myasthenia gravis. Orthologous to human CHRM1 (cholinergic receptor muscarinic 1).
