Background:  OPRS1 and its agonists are implicated in a variety of cellular functions, biological processes and diseases, including cancer biology, psychosis, regulation of neurotransmitter function, motor, endocrine and immune systems. Two sigma receptors, -1 and -2 are presently known and classified based on their ability to bind a variety of ligands. The sigma-1 receptor interacts with a variety of psychotomimetic drugs, including cocaine and amphetamines. It is distinct from any known receptor class and lacks significant homology to known mammalian proteins but possesses some homology with fungal sterol isomerases. The predicted structure of this 25 kDa protein depicts two transmembrane domains with both N- and C-terminal tails residing in the cytoplasm.
