Application
Peptidyl arginine deiminase has been used in a study that assessed promising novel biomarkers for the early diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis. It has also been used in a study to investigate the autopathogenic correlation of periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Calcium is required for peptidylarginine deiminase activity in vitro.
General description
Peptidyl arginine deiminase is the enzyme that converts arginine into citrulline.

Citrullination, a posttranslational modification (PTM) recently discovered on inflammatory chemokines such as interleukin-8 (IL-8/CXCL8) and interferon-γ-inducible protein-10 (IP-10/CXCL10), seriously influences their biological activity. Citrullination or the deimination of arginine to citrulline is dependent on peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) and has been

The immune response to citrullinated peptides in the mucosa has been suggested to play an important role in the transition from pre-onset rheumatoid arthritis (RA) to clinically evident RA. Although there are reports indicating the presence of anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies

Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation promotes vascular damage, thrombosis, and activation of interferon-α-producing plasmacytoid dendritic cells in diseased arteries. Peptidylarginine deiminase inhibition is a strategy that can decrease in vivo NET formation. To test whether peptidylarginine deiminase inhibition, a novel
