Characterization of a new 23 kDalton enkephalin-containing protein in the bovine adrenal medulla.
Immunoblots combined with specific radioimmunoassays (RIAs) have been used to visualize simultaneously all the enkephalin-containing peptides (ECPs) present in a crude extract of bovine adrenal medulla. They have allowed the characterization of a new high molecular weight ECP which has a molecular weight of 23.3 kDalton, contains the amino-terminal part of proenkephalin and ends with the sequence of Leu-enkephalin at its carboxy-terminus.
