:methionine enkephalin-arg-gly-leu
Description:
Methionine enkephalin-arg-gly-leu, also known as Met-enkephalin-Arg-Gly-Leu, is a peptide that belongs to the class of endogenous opioid peptides. It is composed of five amino acids, specifically methionine, leucine, arginine, glycine, and phenylalanine, which contribute to its biological activity. This peptide is primarily involved in pain modulation and has been shown to interact with opioid receptors in the central nervous system, playing a crucial role in analgesia and the regulation of emotional responses. Methionine enkephalin-arg-gly-leu exhibits characteristics typical of peptides, such as being soluble in water and having a relatively low molecular weight. Its structure allows it to participate in various physiological processes, including stress response and immune function. Additionally, due to its opioid-like properties, it has potential therapeutic applications in pain management and treatment of mood disorders. However, further research is necessary to fully understand its mechanisms and potential clinical uses.

Met-Enkephalin-Arg-Gly-Leu
CAS:Met-Enkephalin is a peptide that is found in the central nervous system. It has been shown to have a number of physiological effects, including cardiac hypertrophy, inhibition of protein synthesis and acid secretion. It also increases dopamine β-hydroxylase activity in animals, which may be due to its inhibitory effect on acid secretion. Met-enkephalin has been shown to produce a number of reaction products when hydrolyzed with hydrochloric acid or acetic acid. These products include glycylglycine, glycyltyrosine, glycylleucine, glycylvaline, and glycine.Formula:C41H61N11O10SPurity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:900.06 g/mol
