Abstract
A morphine-like amidated opioid octapeptide metorphamide having the struce Try-Gly-Gly-Phe-Met-Arg-Arg-Val-NH.sub.2 has been isolated from bovine caudate nucleus extracts and synthesized by solid phase peptide synthesis methods. Metorphamide is thus far the only natural opioid peptide having a high .mu.-binding activity.
