Original Source: Phe27Cys polymorphism of the human delta opioid receptor predisposes cells to compromised calcium signaling.
A quarter of the human population with European background carries at least one allele of the OPRD1 gene that encodes the delta opioid receptor with cysteine at the amino acid position 27 (hδOR(Cys27)) instead of the evolutionary conserved phenylalanine (hδOR(Phe27)). The two variants have indistinguishable pharmacological properties but, importantly, hδOR(Cys27) differs from hδOR(Phe27) in having low maturation efficiency, lower stability at the cell surface and pronounced intracellular location. Both...
