Penk (NM_001002927) Mouse Recombinant Protein

Product Specifications

Background

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 (238-259) increase glutamate release in the striatum. PENK (114-133) decreases GABA concentration in the striatum.[UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Function]
