Dermorphin, a peptide isolated from the skin of Phyllomedusa frogs and the peptide receptor (NOP) component by the endogenous agonist nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ). In displacement binding studies at CHOhMu, Dermorphin and DeNo displac the binding of [3H]-DPN in a concentration dependent and saturable manner. Dermorphin displays an affinity of 7.17, while N/OFQ fails to displace [3H]-DPN at the Delta receptor. Dermorphin and DeNo stimulate the binding of GTPγ[35S] in a concentration dependent and saturable manner at the Mu receptor[2].

Solvent & Solubility
H2O : ≥ 100 mg/mL (124.55 mM)
* "≥" means soluble, but saturation unknown.
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (sealed storage, away from moisture). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.

It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

Protocol
Membrane protein (40 μg) is incubated in 0.5 mL volume of 50 mM Tris, 0.2 mM EGTA, 1 mM MgCl2, 100 mM NaCl, 0.1% BSA, 0.15 mM bacitracin; pH 7.4, GDP (33 μM), and ∼150 pM GTPγ[35S]. Varying concentrations of reference ligands (Dermorphin, N/OFQ, Dynorphin-A and Leu-enkephalin) or DeNo (1 pM-10 μM) is added prior to incubation. Non-specific binding is determined in the presence of unlabeled GTPγS (10 μM). Samples are incubated at 30°C for 1 h with gentle agitation. Reactions are terminated by vacuum filtration through dry Whatman GF/B filters, using a Brandel harvester[2].
