Abstract

Radioligand binding and cDNA homology studies have suggested the existence of opiate receptors distinct from the recently‐cloned, μ, δ and κ receptors. XOR1S, a rat brain cDNA whose predicted translation product displays 67–72% homology with those encoded by μ1, δ1 and κ1 opiate receptor cDNAs, was constructed from two partial cDNAs identified through cDNA homology approaches. A longer XOR1L variant of this cDNA was also identified by polymerase chain reaction studies using genomic DNA and cDNA from brain and peripheral tissues. XOR1 mRNA is most highly expressed in hypothalamus. COS cell expression of both clones confers neither robust binding of opiate ligands nor reproducible opiate inhibition of forskolin‐stimulated adenylate cyclase. These studies identify an orphan clone that helps to define features of the opiate receptor gene family, including apparent differential splicing and expression in peripheral tissues.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
