Supplementary information

Dynorphin A also known as Dynorphin-1 or Dyn A is an opioid peptide that acts as a neurotransmitter. It is part of the endorphin enkephalin and dynorphin family of opioid peptides which play significant roles in the modulation of pain and emotion. Dynorphin A consists of 17 amino acids and has a mass of approximately 2 kDa. Its expression is prominent in the central nervous system including the brain and spinal cord where it interacts with kappa-opioid receptors to regulate various physiological processes.
Biological function summary

Dynorphin peptides including Dynorphin A act as modulators of nociceptive pathways influencing the perception of pain. As an agonist of kappa-opioid receptors Dynorphin A produces analgesic effects by inhibiting neurotransmitter release in the central nervous system. Although it does not mainly form part of a complex Dynorphin A may stimulate the release or inhibition of other neurotransmitters such as dopamine affecting mood and stress responses.

Pathways

Several key physiological activities involve Dynorphin A. It influences the opioid system pathway where it plays important roles in pain modulation and mood regulation. Dynorphin A also interacts with the stress response pathways particularly impacting the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. It shares pathways with other neurotransmitters and proteins such as endorphins and enkephalins which also target opioid receptors.

Dynorphin A relates to conditions like addiction and depression. It contributes to the dysregulation of neurotransmitter systems which is a factor in these disorders. Dynorphin A modulates dopamine release involved in reward pathways influencing addiction development. In mood disorders it connects with stress hormones and peptides affecting mental health outcomes. Associations with proteins like corticotropin-releasing factor further link it to how the body manages stress potentially contributing to depressive states.

Target data

Leu-enkephalins compete with and mimic the effects of opiate drugs. They play a role in a number of physiologic functions, including pain perception and responses to stress (By similarity).. Dynorphin peptides differentially regulate the kappa opioid receptor. Dynorphin A(1-13) has a typical opioid activity, it is 700 times more potent than Leu-enkephalin (By similarity).. Leumorphin has a typical opioid activity and may have anti-apoptotic effect.
