Human Peptidylarginine Deiminase Type III: Molecular Cloning and Nucleotide Sequence of the cDNA, Properties of the Recombinant Enzyme, and Immunohistochemical Localization in Human Skin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Peptidylarginine deiminase catalyzes the post-translational modification of proteins through the conversion of arginine to citrulline in the presence of calcium ions. In rodents, peptidylarginine deiminase has been classified into four isoforms, types I,

Meta-analysis of the association between PADI4 -92C/G polymorphism and rheumatoid arthritis in the Chinese population

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2017
Many studies have evaluated the correlation between peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PADI4) -92C/G polymorphism and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the results remain inconclusive.

Cholinergic dysfunction-induced insufficient activation of alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor drives the development of rheumatoid arthritis through promoting protein citrullination via the SP3/PAD4 pathway

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2023
Both cholinergic dysfunction and protein citrullination are the hallmarks of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the relationship between the two phenomena remains unclear. We explored whether and how cholinergic dysfunction accelerates protein citrullination

Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 -104C/T polymorphism and risk of rheumatoid arthritis: A pooled analysis based on different populations. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Many studies have analyzed the association between peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PADI4) -104C/T polymorphism and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the results are inconsistent. This meta-analysis, based on different populations, updated and reevaluated

Citrullination Licenses Calpain to Decondense Nuclei in Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Neutrophils respond to various stimuli by decondensing and releasing nuclear chromatin characterized by citrullinated histones as neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs).

Peptidylarginine Deiminase 4 Promotes the Renal Infiltration of Neutrophils and Exacerbates the TLR7 Agonist-Induced Lupus Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4), encoded by PADI4, plays critical roles in the immune system; however, its contribution to the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis remains controversial. The pathological roles of PAD4 were investigated in lupus model mice.

The Occurrence and Immunology of Peptidylarginine Deiminase and Its Preparation from Bovine Epidermis by an Improved Method [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Peptidylarginine deiminase activity has been found in some tissues from at least one representative of each vertebrate class, suggesting that the ocurrence of the enzyme throughout the vertebrates is widespread.

Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) activity in early rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Rheumatology, 2019
Objectives: Peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) are a family of calcium-dependent enzymes catalysing the conversion of arginine residues to citrulline, which may constitute a risk factor in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. We investigated PAD activation by serum (PADAct) in early RA, and the associations between PAD activation and disease ...
