LIGANDS
We have listed the opioid ligands into the categories on the left.
We have indicated the ligands for which we have the three-dimensional
coordinates in PDB format. Click here to view a table of available
three-dimensional structures, or
simply click
on the ligand's 2D structure to view its 3D structure.
Two main sources were used when compiling the ligands, and the corresponding
nomenclature was followed.
