Membranes were incubated with 0.01 nm[35S]GTPγS and 10 μm GDP in the presence and absence of 1 μm DAMGO. Data are mean ± standard error of KD and B maxvalues from biphasic Scatchard analysis of absolute [35S]GTPγS binding and from monophasic Scatchard analysis of net DAMGO-stimulated [35S]GTPγS binding.
