Proenkephalin A Antibody (218B2C) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects proenkephalin A protein of human origin by western blotting (WB). Proenkephalin A, also known as PENK, preproenkephalin, or enkephalin A, is a 267 amino acid secreted protein that plays a crucial role in the opioid system. Anti-proenkephalin A antibody (218B2C) is primarily located in the central nervous system and adrenal medulla, where proenkephalin A is processed into active opioid peptides such as Leu-enkephalin and Met-enkephalin. These peptides are essential for modulating pain, stress responses, and emotional behaviors by acting as ligands for the κ-type opioid receptor. The proper functioning of proenkephalin A is vital for maintaining homeostasis in pain perception and emotional regulation, making proenkephalin A a significant target for research in pain management and neuropharmacology. Proenkephalin A monoclonal antibody (218B2C) is an invaluable tool for scientists studying the intricate mechanisms of opioid signaling and its implications in various physiological and pathological conditions.
