Research Information

Dermorphin is a naturally occurring heptapeptide first isolated from the skin of Phyllomedusa sauvagei (South American tree frog). Its sequence is H-Tyr-D-Ala-Phe-Gly-Tyr-Pro-Ser-NH2, notably containing a D-amino acid (D-Ala) at position 2.

Published research has documented its exceptionally high selectivity and affinity for the mu-opioid receptor (MOR). Binding studies have characterized its receptor interaction kinetics and downstream G-protein signaling cascade activation.
