Abstract
A general solid-phase synthetic strategy is developed to prepare fluorescent and/or lanthanide-labeled derivatives of the δ-opioid receptor (δOR) ligand H-Dmt-Tic-Lys(R)-OH. The high δ-OR affinity {K i = 3 nM) and desirable in vivo characteristics of the Cy5 derivative 1 suggest its usefulness for structure - function studies and receptor localization and as a high-contrast noninvasive molecular marker for live imaging ex vivo or in vivo.
