Nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ), a 17-amino acid neuropeptide, is the endogenous ligand for the nociceptin receptor (NOP, ORL-1). Nociceptin acts as a potent anti-analgesic, effectively counteracting the effect of pain-relievers; its activation is associated with brain functions such as pain sensation and fear learning.

The gene coding for prepronociceptin is located on Ch8p21 in humans.[1] Nociceptin is derived from the prepronociceptin protein, as are a further two peptides, nocistatin and NocII, both of which inhibit N/OFQ receptor function.[2] Nociceptin is the first example of reverse pharmacology; the NOP receptor was discovered before the endogenous ligand which was discovered by two separate groups in 1995.[3][4]
