Abstract
Activation of the μ opioid receptor (MOR) can give analgesia, but also has dangerous side effects. Drugs that target MOR through an allosteric site, meaning they bind outside of the usual pocket, present a novel mode of receptor activation with different pharmacology relative to orthosteric drugs. Recent structural studies give valuable new information on how allosteric modulators interact with MOR.
