Background	Proenkephalin, also known as proenkephalin A, is an endogenous opioid polypeptide hormone which, via proteolyic cleavage, produces the enkephalin peptides [Met]enkephalin, and to a lesser extent, [Leu]enkephalin. The pre-proenkephalin gene contains four copies of Met-enkephalin and one copy each of Leu-enkephalin, the heptapeptide Met-enkephalin-Arg- Phe, and the octapeptide Met-Enkephalin-Arg-Gly-Leu. Other endogenous opioid peptides produced by proenkephalin include adrenorphin, amidorphin, BAM-18, BAM-20P, BAM-22P, peptide B, peptide E, and peptide F. Peptide F contains [Met5]enkephalin sequences at both its N terminus and its C terminus. The carboxy-terminally amidated peptide comprising the first 26 amino acids of peptide F is named amidorphin. This antibody was generated by immunization of rabbits with Peptide F coupled to a carrier protein.
Synonyms	preproenkephalin; proenkephalin
