ABSTRACT:
The invention relates generally to compositions of and methods for obtaining epsilon opioid receptor polypeptides. The invention relates as well to polynucleotides encoding epsilon opioid receptor polypeptides, the recombinant vectors carrying those sequences, the recombinant host cells including either the sequences or vectors, and recombinant opioid receptor polypeptides. The invention includes as well, methods for using the isolated, recombinant receptor polypeptide in assays designed to select and improve substances capable of interacting with epsilon opioid receptor polypeptides for use in diagnostic, drug design and therapeutic applications.
