[3H]DAMGO saturation studies in mMOR-1 variants

[3H]DAMGO saturation studies were performed in membranes of CHO cells stably expressing the indicated variant as described under Materials and Methods. KD values were determined by nonlinear regression analysis using Prism (GraphPad Software Inc., San Diego, CA). Results are the mean ± S.E. of at least three independent determinations.
