The standard error for each value is approximately 12% of the Kj. Each point represents at least two determinations. apparent dissociation constant, AG° the standard free energy change, AH" the standard enthalpy change, AS" the standard entropy change. R the gas constant ( cal mol"' K"'), and T the absolute temperature. Binding enthalpies were determined from van't Ho ft' plots of In Ka versus the reciprocal absolute temperature using the integrated van't Hoft"equation: In Ka = -AH°/RT + AS"/R. Ka values were calculated using the experimentally deter- mined Kj at each temperature. The data were fit using a least squares linear regression. For the [3H]CH A competition experiments conducted at 5°C with A. rostruia brain membranes, IC\0 values and slope factors were determined using the nonlinear least squares curve-fitting program LIGAND (Munson and Robard. 1980). Dissociation constants (K,) were deter- mined using the equation: K, = ICs0/[l +([L]/Kd)] where [L] is the total [3H]CHA concentration employed. Kd is the apparent dissociation constant of [3H]CHA and is the concentration of inhibitor resulting in 50% inhibition of the specific binding (Cheng and Prusoff 1973). Results Effects of temperature on Kdand B,,,,,x The effects of temperature at pH on K^ of [3H]- CHA values differed among the eight species studied (Fig. 1). Agonist binding in chicken and rat brain mem- branes was the most sensitive to temperature changes: Kj
