Camphor binding to a possible receptor of rat olfactory epithelium has been studied within the ligand concentration range 10(-11)-10(-6) M. At these concentrations camphor is bound by a set of receptors. They are distinguished by both the affinity to the ligand (K1 = 5 X 10(-10) M, K2 = 3.5 X 10(-8) M, K3 approximately equal to 10(-6) M) and their amount in the epithelium. The differences in the affinities are due to different values of the association rate constant of camphor (k1), which varies from 10(6) M-1 X s-1 for the receptors with high affinity up to 2 X 10(2) M-1 X s-1 for those with low affinity. These data are discussed in terms of equilibrium and kinetic models of the receptor-stimulus interaction.
