NOP (ORL1) Human Opioid GPCR Cell Based Agonist & Antagonist cAMP LeadHunter Assay - FR

Background Information:

Orphanin (N/OFG, NOP) receptors belong to the superfamily of G protein-coupled seven transmembrane proteins. G-protein-coupled receptors constitute one of the major signal transduction systems in eukaryotic cells. Coding sequences for these receptors, in those regions believed to contribute to the agonist-antagonist binding site, are strongly conserved across mammalian species. The neuropeptide nociceptin/Orphanin FQ (N/OFQ) was recently identified as the endogenous ligand for the opioid receptor-like (ORL1) receptor. Orphanin ORL1 receptors are found primarily, but not entirely, in the central nervous system.
