Peptidylarginine Deiminase 2 in Murine Antiviral and Autoimmune Antibody Responses
The peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) and the citrullinated proteins that they generate have key roles in innate immunity and rheumatoid arthritis, an inflammatory arthritis with antibodies that target citrullinated proteins.

Insights into peptidylarginine deiminase expression and citrullination pathways
Peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) are calcium-dependent enzymes that mediate citrullination, an irreversible post-translational modification (PTM). PAD enzymes have received increasing attention in (patho-)physiology since multi-omics analysis accelerated their expression profiling.

Peptidylarginine deiminase: a candidate factor in demyelinating disease [PDF]
AbstractIn earlier studies we demonstrated that an increase in the relative amounts of citrullinated myelin basic protein (MBP) was found in multiple sclerosis (Moscarello et al. 1994). To determine the temporal relationship between the citrullinated MBP and peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD), the enzyme responsible for deiminating arginyl residues in ...

Functional role of dimerization of human peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4). [PDF]
Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) is a homodimeric enzyme that catalyzes Ca²⁺-dependent protein citrullination, which results in the conversion of arginine to citrulline.
