Post Translational Modifications Proenkephalin-A is cleaved by CTSL to generate Met-enkephalin. Met-enkephalin: Processed and degraded by ACE. Leu-enkephalin: Processed and degraded by ACE. Met-enkephalin-Arg-Gly-Leu: Probably cleaved by ACE. Met-enkephalin-Arg-Phe: Processed by ACE to generate Met-enkephalin in the nucleus accumbens of the brain. The N-terminal domain contains 6 conserved cysteines thought to be involved in disulfide bonding and/or processing.
Function Met-enkephalin: Neuropeptide that competes 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. Leu-enkephalin: Neuropeptide that competes 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. Met-enkephalin-Arg-Phe: Met-enkephalin-Arg-Phe neuropeptide acts as a strong ligand of Mu-type opioid receptor OPRM1. Met-enkephalin-Arg-Phe-binding to OPRM1 in the nucleus accumbens of the brain increases activation of OPRM1, leading to long-term synaptic depression of glutamate release. PENK(114-133): Increases glutamate release in the striatum and decreases GABA concentration in the striatum. PENK(239-260): Increases glutamate release in the striatum.
