Abstract excerpt
Delta-opioid receptor protein (OPRD1) is one of the potential targets for treating pain. The presently available opioid agonists are known to cause unnecessary side effects. To discover a novel opioid agonist, our research group has synthesized a chimeric peptide MCRT and proved its potential activity through in vivo analysis. Non-synonymous SNPs (nsSNPs) missense mutations affect the functionality and stability...
