Opioid Receptor Interaction Definition

Opioid Receptor Binding involves a temporary non-covalent highly specific and high affinity interaction through intermolecular physical forces of attraction and spatial complementarity with a group of cell surface intrinsic membrane proteins that mediate the pain suppression and neurobehavioral effects of endogenous secreted peptide opioid signaling molecules through modification of the activity of signal transduction pathways.
