功能: 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(237-258) increase glutamate release in the striatum. PENK(114-133) decreases GABA concentration in the striatum.,PTM:The N-terminal domain contains 6 conserved cysteines thought to be involved in disulfide bonding and/or processing.,similarity:Belongs to the opioid neuropeptide precursor family.,
