Characterizing citrullination by mass spectrometry-based proteomics

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2023
Citrullination is an important post-translational modification (PTM) of arginine, known to play a role in autoimmune disorders, innate immunity response and maintenance of stem cell potency. However, citrullination remains poorly characterized and not as

Upregulation of citrullination pathway: From Autoimmune to Idiopathic Lung Fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2017
Background Increased protein citrullination and peptidylarginine deiminases (PADIs), which catalyze the citrullination process, are central in Rheumatoid arthritis pathogenesis and probably involved in the initial steps towards autoimmunity ...

Regulation of glycolysis and cancer cell proliferation by PKM2 citrullination

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2021
Conversion of peptidyl-arginine to peptidyl citrulline, known as citrullination, is a post-translational protein modification catalyzed by the PADI (Protein Arginine Deiminase) family of enzymes. PADI1 and PADI3 catalyze citrullination of arginine 106 in

PAD2-Mediated Citrullination Contributes to Efficient Oligodendrocyte Differentiation and Myelination [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Citrullination, the deimination of peptidylarginine residues into peptidylcitrulline, has been implicated in the etiology of several diseases. In multiple sclerosis, citrullination is thought to be a major driver of pathology through hypercitrullination ...

Colorectal cancer liver metastatic growth depends on PAD4-driven citrullination of the extracellular matrix

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Colorectal cancers (CRCs) often develop into untreatable metastatic disease of the liver. Here the authors report the modification of extracellular matrix proteins by citrullination in CRC metastases to the liver and propose that inhibition of ...

The Citrullination-Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Axis in Chronic Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Innate Immunity, 2022
Citrullination of proteins is crucial for the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) – strands of nuclear DNA expulsed in the extracellular environment along with antimicrobial proteins in order to halt the spread of pathogens. Paradoxically,

Inflammation-related citrullination of matrisome proteins in human cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
IntroductionProtein arginine deiminases (PADs) are intracellular enzymes that may, especially in pathological conditions, also citrullinate extracellular substrates, including matrisome proteins such as structural proteins in extracellular matrix (ECM ...

Epitope-Based Chicken-Derived Novel Anti-PAD2 Monoclonal Antibodies Inhibit Citrullination

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2021
The aberrant upregulation of protein arginine deiminase 2- (PAD2-) catalyzed citrullination is reported in various autoimmune diseases (rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis) and several cancers.

Novel method to quantify peptidylarginine deiminase activity shows distinct citrullination patterns in rheumatoid and juvenile idiopathic arthritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionPeptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) mediate citrullination, an irreversible posttranslational modification that converts arginine to citrulline residues in proteins.
