Description
Anti-PENK Antibody (CAB6302)
The Proenkephalin A Polyclonal Antibody (CAB6302) is a valuable tool for researchers studying proenkephalin A, a precursor protein involved in the production of enkephalin peptides that regulate pain sensation and emotional responses. This antibody, produced in rabbits, is highly specific to human samples and is optimized for Western blot applications.Proenkephalin A is a key player in the endogenous opioid system, known for its role in modulating pain perception and mood. Research involving proenkephalin A has implications for understanding pain management, addiction, and mental health disorders.
The Proenkephalin A Polyclonal Antibody enables researchers to detect and analyze proenkephalin A expression in various cell types, providing valuable insights into its function and potential therapeutic applications.By targeting proenkephalin A, researchers can uncover new avenues for developing treatments for pain disorders, addiction, and psychiatric conditions. The Proenkephalin A Polyclonal Antibody is a reliable tool for investigating the complex mechanisms underlying these conditions and advancing the field of neuroscience research.

| Background: | This gene encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate multiple protein products. These products include the pentapeptide opioids Met-enkephalin and Leu-enkephalin, which are stored in synaptic vesicles, then released into the synapse where they bind to mu- and delta-opioid receptors to modulate the perception of pain. Other non-opioid cleavage products may function in distinct biological activities. |
| UniProt Protein Function: | PENK: 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(237-258) increase glutamate release in the striatum. PENK(114-133) decreases GABA concentration in the striatum. Belongs to the opioid neuropeptide precursor family. |
