μ-Opioid Receptor Forms a Functional Heterodimer With Cannabinoid CB1 Receptor: Electrophysiological and FRET Assay Analysis
Interactions between μ-opioid receptor (μOR) and cannabinoid CB1 receptor (CB1R) were examined by morphological and electrophysiological methods. In baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells coexpressing μOR fused to the yellow fluorescent protein Venus and CB1R fused to the cyan fluorescent protein Cerulean,...
