α-Casein Exorphins

For other opioid peptides see Acetalins, BAM Peptides, β-Casomorphins, Deltorphins, Dermorphins, Dynorphins, Endomorphins, Endorphins, Enkephalins, Gliadorphin-7, Gluten Exorphins, Kyotorphins, Metorphamide, Neoendorphins, Opioid Peptides, Opiorphins, δ Opioid Receptor Antagonists, and Valorphin.
The opioid acivity of these peptides was examined by different bioassays. The α-casein sequence (90-96) was the most potent opioid in these bioassays.
