'''Opioid receptor''' (OpR) is a G protein-coupled receptor with opioids as ligands. OpR types are classified according to the ligands which bind to them. The '''μ-opioid receptor''' binds morphine; The '''κ-opioid receptor''' binds opium-type ligands; The '''δ-opioid receptor''' binds enkephalins. For more details on μ-opioid receptor see [[Mu Opioid Receptor Bound to a Morphinan Antagonist]]. | '''Opioid receptor''' (OpR) is a G protein-coupled receptor with opioids as ligands.
