Objective Anti‐citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) can be promiscuous, with cross‐reactive binding to many antigens containing short motifs, or private with little cross‐reactivity. Also, ACPA reactivity patterns differ among RA patients, including for motif‐containing epitopes in important self‐antigens like collagen ...
