Overview
| Product Description | Rabbit Polyclonal antibody recognizes Dynorphin B This antibody recognizes dynorphin B, an endogenous opioid peptide, also known as rimorphin with the peptide sequence Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu-Arg-Arg-Gln-Phe-Lys-Val-Val-Thr, derived from the sequential cleavage of pro-enkephalin B to form leumorphin which is, in turn cleaved to form dynorphin B (Devi et al. 1985). The cleavage of the dynorphin precursors to form the dynorphin neuropeptides is largely controlled by the serine protease cathepsin L which co-localizes with dynorphins in secretory vesicles of brain cortical neurons(Funkelstein et al. 2010) and prohormone convertase 2, a member of the furin, peptidate S8 family (Schwarzer 2009). Dynorphin b sequence is well conserved among mammal, avian (Youngren et al. 1993) and reptilian (Goldsmith et al. 1992) species. Rabbit anti Dynorphin b antibody is expected to have a wide species cross reactivity. |

GeneID: 100135596 Guinea pig PDYN |
|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | PDYN |
| Gene Full Name | prodynorphin |
| Background | The protein encoded by this gene is a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to form the secreted opioid peptides beta-neoendorphin, dynorphin, leu-enkephalin, rimorphin, and leumorphin. These peptides are ligands for the kappa-type of opioid receptor. Dynorphin is involved in modulating responses to several psychoactive substances, including cocaine. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010] |
| Function | 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 (By similarity). Dynorphin peptides differentially regulate the kappa opioid receptor. Dynorphin A(1-13) has a typical opiod activity, it is 700 times more potent than Leu-enkephalin (By similarity). Leumorphin has a typical opiod activity and may have anti-apoptotic effect.

| Calculated MW | 28 kDa |
| PTM | The N-terminal domain contains 6 conserved cysteines thought to be involved in disulfide bonding and/or processing. |
