Metal-Binding Ability of Leu-Enkephalin, Related Glycoconjugates and Peptidomimetics
Both the chemistry and consequences of the nonenzymatic reaction between reducing sugars and reactive amino groups of amino acids, peptides and proteins (known as the Maillard reaction), have received considerable attention in food and health science ...

Kinetics of chymotrypsin- and papain-catalysed synthesis of [leucine]enkephalin and [methionine]enkephalin [PDF]
The proteinase-catalysed synthesis of [Leu]enkephalin and [Met]enkephalin was studied kinetically. N alpha-t-Butoxycarbonyl-amino acids and peptides or their ethyl esters served as acyl donors, and amino acid phenylhydrazides were used as acyl acceptors.

Pro-opiomelanocortin co-localizes with corticotropin-releasing factor in axon terminals of the noradrenergic nucleus locus coeruleus [PDF]
We previously demonstrated that the opioid peptide, enkephalin, and corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) are occasionally co-localized in individual axon terminals but more frequently converge on common dendrites in the locus coeruleus (LC).

UHPLC‐MSE Insights Into Extrusion‐Driven Changes in Wheat Phenolics and Their Bioaccessibility
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives This study evaluated the impact of thermoplastic extrusion (wheat snack, WS) and cold extrusion followed by cooking (wheat pasta, WP) on phenolic compounds (PC) in two Brazilian wheat genotypes, commercially classified by gluten strength (ORS Agile, strong; ORS Vintecinco, weak).

Isolation and amino acid sequence analysis of a 4,000-dalton dynorphin from porcine pituitary [PDF]
A 4,000-dalton dynorphin was isolated from porcine pituitary. It has 32 amino acids (Mr = 3,986), with the previously described heptadecapeptide (now called dynorphin A) at its amino terminus and a related tridecapeptide, dynorphin B, at its carboxyl ...
