Autocitrullination confers monocyte chemotactic properties to peptidylarginine deiminase 4 [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) contributes to the production of citrullinated proteins as autoantigens for anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). PAD4 can also self-deiminate via autocitrullination.

Reactive oxygen species inhibit catalytic activity of peptidylarginine deiminase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2017
Protein citrullination catalysed by peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD) may play an important pathogenic role in several chronic inflammatory diseases and malignancies. PAD2, PAD4, and citrullinated proteins are found in the synovium of rheumatoid arthritis

Pathogenesis of Porphyromonas gingivalis peptidylarginine deiminase: from periodontal microenvironment to systemic diseases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Periodontitis is a globally prevalent chronic inflammatory disease that exerts profound effects on both oral and systemic health. Porphyromonas gingivalis is a key pathogenic bacterium in periodontitis. Its secreted peptidylarginine deiminase (PPAD) is a

Peptidylarginine deiminase 4-mediated citrullination in human disease: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic targeting [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) is a calcium-dependent enzyme that catalyzes protein citrullination, a post-translational modification that can alter protein charge, conformation, and function. Among the mammalian peptidylarginine deiminase isoforms,

Anti-peptidylarginine deiminase-4 antibodies at mucosal sites can activate peptidylarginine deiminase-4 enzyme activity in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Mucosal sites are hypothesized to play a role in the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Since serum anti-peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD)4 antibodies, including a subset that cross-react with PAD3 (PAD3/4), are specific for RA and ...

Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 deficiency alleviates hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced cardiomyocyte injury. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE
BackgroundCardiac ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury is a serious consequence of reperfusion therapy for myocardial infarction (MI). Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) is a calcium-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the citrullination of proteins.

Roles of peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD) and protein citrullination in viral infections [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) are calcium-dependent enzymes that catalyze protein citrullination, a post-translational modification implicated in both physiological processes and the pathogenesis of various diseases.

Crystal structure of human peptidylarginine deiminase type VI (PAD6) provides insights into its inactivity [PDF]

open access: yesIUCrJ
Human peptidylarginine deiminase isoform VI (PAD6), which is predominantly limited to cytoplasmic lattices in the mammalian oocytes in ovarian tissue, is essential for female fertility.

Intrinsic function of the peptidylarginine deiminase PADI4 is dispensable for normal haematopoiesis [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Open, 2022
Peptidylarginine deiminases (PADIs) are strongly associated with the development of autoimmunity, neurodegeneration and cancer but their physiological roles are ill-defined.

Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 is a differential regulator of salt-sensitive and salt-resistant hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Neutrophils contribute to immune surveillance by releasing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) through NETosis. While essential, dysregulated NETosis is linked to pathology.
