Human Methionine enkephalin (Met-Enkephalin) is a small 5 amino acid peptide cleaved from the precursor pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC). Met-Enkephalin is an endogenous opioid peptide that interacts with opioid receptors and produces analgesic effects.

Antibody recognizes Met-Enkephalin in native applications. A dilution of 5-10 µg/ml is recommended for immunohistochemistry using formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tissues and for 4% paraformaldehyde fixed frozen tissues. A dilution of 5-15 µg/ml is recommended for immunofluorescence. . Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Cross reactivity: Human; mouse; rat. Met-Enkephalin is highly conserved so cross-reactivity with other species is expected. Cross-reactivity with other opioid peptides is as follows: with Leu-enkephalin 5.8%; with beta-lipotropin 0.01%; with beta-endorphin 0.01%
