A potent peptide affinity reagent for the opiate receptor.
1981
Abstract The synthesis and characterization of a novel enkephalin analogue, Tyr-D-Ala-Gly-Phe-Leu-chloromethyl ketone, is described. The biological potency of the compound in various assays has been determined to be very high. The compound is an alkylating affinity reagent and irreversibly inactivates a defined population of enkephalin receptors in rat brain membrane preparations, as well as irreversibly inhibiting electrically stimulated contractions in the mouse vas deferens tissue preparation.
