Psilocin and psilocybin primarily bind with serotonin receptor proteins -- although there may be some affinity for other receptor proteins as well (I'm not sure, and I don't think anybody is)...
A. Muscaria contains muscarine which I believe binds with a muscarinic sub-type of acetylcholine receptor...
That's all I can tell you, from memory. I'm sure there are many here who are sharper on the current state of these things then I am...

Yeah, they (psilocin and psilocybin) are basically best known as 5-HT receptor ligands. I believe activity at the 2A subtype is supposed to be correlated with hallucinogenic activity.

I'm not sure of their binding affinities and their actions at other receptors. If any knows of any other activity, please inform us.
