Mu Opioid Receptor (MOP), also called Mu-type opioid receptor (MOR-1), is a receptor for natural and synthetic opioids such as beta-endorphin, endomorphin, morphine, heroin, DAMGO, fentanyl, etorphine, buprenorphin and methadone.
MOP functions as a class A G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR), but its down-regulation pathways vary with the agonist and may or may not be independent of G-protein coupling.
Endogenous ligands induce rapid desensitization, endocytosis and recycling, as opposed to synthetic ligands, like morphine, that trigger only low desensitization and endocytosis.
Hetero-oligomerization with other GPCRs can modulate agonist binding, signaling and trafficking properties.
MOP is expressed in the brain and is involved in neurogenesis.
MOP is the main physiological target for most clinically important opioid analgesics.
