Theoretical conformational analysis of met‐enkephalin [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1977 Two pentapeptides, enkephalins (H-Tyr-Gly- Gly-Phe-X-OH, X = Met or Leu), have recently been isolated from mammalian brain [ 11. Subsequent investigations have mainly concentrated on Met- enkephalin which is synonymous with enkephalin in the present paper. It was assumed on the basis of physiological experiments that enkephalin is the endogenous ligand

Exposure to exogenous enkephalins disrupts reproductive development in the Eastern lubber grasshopper, Romalea microptera (Insecta: Orthoptera). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Enkephalins play a major role in reproductive physiology in crustaceans; however their role in reproductive development in insects is largely unknown. We investigated the effect of exposure to exogenous leucine-enkephalin (Leu-Enk), methionine-enkephalin

The folding funnel landscape for the peptide met-enkephalin [PDF]
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Genetics, 1999 We study the free energy landscape of the small peptide Met-enkephalin. Our data were obtained from a generalized-ensemble Monte Carlo simulation taking the interactions among all atoms into account. We show that the free energy landscape resembles that of a funnel, indicating that this peptide is a good folder.
