Abstract excerpt
1. To investigate the effect of the hydrophilic Asn amino acid at position 230 of the human mu-opioid receptor (hMOR230) on the potency of various agonists, we mutated this residue to Thr and Leu (hMORN230T and hMORN230L respectively). 2. Taking advantage of the functional coupling of the opioid receptor with the heteromultimeric G-protein-coupled inwardly rectifying K(+) (GIRK1/GIRK2) channel, either the wild...
