Difference between Μ-opioid receptor and Rhodopsin-like receptors

Μ-opioid receptor vs. Rhodopsin-like receptors

The μ-opioid receptors (MOR) are a class of opioid receptors with a high affinity for enkephalins and beta-endorphin, but a low affinity for dynorphins. Rhodopsin-like receptors are a family of proteins that comprise the largest group of G protein-coupled receptors.

Similarities between Μ-opioid receptor and Rhodopsin-like receptors

Μ-opioid receptor and Rhodopsin-like receptors have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): G protein–coupled receptor, Gastrin-releasing peptide receptor, Δ-opioid receptor, Κ-opioid receptor, Opioid receptor.

G protein–coupled receptor

G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs), also known as seven-(pass)-transmembrane domain receptors, 7TM receptors, heptahelical receptors, serpentine receptor, and G protein–linked receptors (GPLR), constitute a large protein family of receptors that detect molecules outside the cell and activate internal signal transduction pathways and, ultimately, cellular responses.

Gastrin-releasing peptide receptor

The gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR), now properly known as BB2 is a G protein-coupled receptor whose endogenous ligand is gastrin releasing peptide.

Δ-opioid receptor

The δ-opioid receptor, also known as delta opioid receptor or simply delta receptor, abbreviated DOR, is an inhibitory 7-transmembrane G-protein coupled receptor coupled to the G protein Gi/G0 and has enkephalins as its endogenous ligands.

Μ-opioid receptor and Rhodopsin-like receptors Comparison

Μ-opioid receptor has 62 relations, while Rhodopsin-like receptors has 309. As they have in common 5, the Jaccard index is 1.35% = 5 / (62 + 309).
