The human opioid receptor-like (ORL(1)) receptor was tagged with the immunoglobulin G1 Fc fragment at the carboxy-terminus and expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. Expression of the ORL(1)-Fc receptor was confirmed by immunohistochemical staining. The fusion protein was enriched by affinity chromatography and then verified by immunodetection. The function of the ORL(1)-Fc receptor was determined by examining nociceptin/OFQ-induced inhibition of cAMP accumulation. The ORL(1)-Fc receptor inhibited the forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation. The inhibitory response was selectively induced by nociceptin/OFQ in a dose-dependent and pertussis toxin-sensitive manner. Our results indicate that the carboxy-terminal Fc-tagged ORL(1) receptor retained the ability to interact with G(i) proteins to inhibit adenylyl cyclase.
