Application Notes for anti-PENK antibody
Peptide ELISA: Antibody detection limit dilution 1: 32000.
Immunohistochemistry: Frozen section of Human Hypothalamus shows staining of dense enkephalinergic axon plexus and scattered neuronal cell bodies (higher magnification inset) in the human infundibular nucleus. Recommended concentration, 0.3-1ug/ml.
Western Blot: Approx 37kDa band observed in Human Adrenal Gland lysates (calculated MW of 30.8kDa according to NP_006202.1). The observed molecular weight corresponds to earlier findings in literature with different antibodies (Normant and Loh, Endocrinology.1998 Apr;139(4): 2137-45; PMID: 9529003). Recommended concentration: 1-3ug/ml.

Western Blot (WB) of anti-PENK antibody

(0.3ug/ml) staining of Human Adrenal Gland lysate (35ug protein in RIPA buffer). Primary incubation was 1 hour. Detected by chemiluminescence.

Other Notes

Small volumes of anti-PENK antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

NCBI Summary for PENK

This gene encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate multiple protein products. These products include the pentapeptide opioids Met-enkephalin and Leu-enkephalin, which are stored in synaptic vesicles, then released into the synapse where they bind to mu- and delta-opioid receptors to modulate the perception of pain. Other non-opioid cleavage products may function in distinct biological activities. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]

UniProt Comments for PENK

PENK: 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. Belongs to the opioid neuropeptide precursor family.

Protein type: Hormone; Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 8q23-q24

Cellular Component: cell soma; dendrite; extracellular region; nerve terminal; perikaryon; plasma membrane
