Abstract

Genes encoding opioid receptors can be retrieved from vertebrate libraries using the murine probe disclosed herein under low-stringency conditions. The DNA sequence shown in FIG. 5 or its complement can be used to obtain the human delta, kappa and mu genes as well as the murine mu gene. The probe provided encodes the murine delta opioid receptor.
