A 2D skeletal formula depicts the alkaloid morphine, showing a fused phenanthrene/morphinan scaffold with two oxygen atoms (hydroxyl/ether groups, red) and a tertiary N-methyl amine (blue). In biological hierarchy, this small-molecule ligand interacts with the mu-opioid receptor (MOR), a membrane protein in neurons of the central nervous system (CNS). In organic chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmacology, morphine functions as a potent analgesic by modulating nociceptive signaling. The illustration represents a molecule, not a tissue or organ.
