General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Met- and Leu-enkephalins compete with and mimic the effects of opiate drugs. They play a role in a number of physiologic functions, including pain perception and responses to stress. PENK(114-133) and PENK(239-260) increase glutamate release in the striatum. PENK(114-133) decreases GABA concentration in the striatum. Ref.8 |
| Subcellular location | |
| Tissue specificity | Expressed in brain, heart and testis. |
| Post-translational modification | The N-terminal domain contains 6 conserved cysteines thought to be involved in disulfide bonding and/or processing. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the opioid neuropeptide precursor family. |
| Mass spectrometry | Molecular mass is 2203.971 Da from positions 114 - 133. Determined by ESI. Ref.8 Molecular mass is 4592.8 Da from positions 143 - 185. Determined by ESI. Ref.8 Molecular mass is 2504.027 Da from positions 239 - 260. Determined by ESI. Ref.8 |
