Citrullination in tumor immunity and therapy [PDF]
Peptidyl arginine deiminases (PADs) catalyze the conversion of arginine residues into peptidyl citrulline, a posttranslational modification known as protein citrullination (or arginine deimination).

A novel role for peptidylarginine deiminases in microvesicle release reveals therapeutic potential of PAD inhibition in sensitizing prostate cancer cells to chemotherapy [PDF]
Introduction: Protein deimination, defined as the post-translational conversion of protein-bound arginine to citrulline, is carried out by a family of 5 calcium-dependent enzymes, the peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) and has been linked to various ...

Picking the PADlock: Chemical Probes to Study the Protein Arginine Deiminases
The Protein Arginine Deiminases (PADs) are a small family of human enzymes that catalyze the postātranslational hydrolysis of arginine residues to generate citrulline. These enzymes are important regulators of gene transcription and their activity is upregulated in multiple inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, and ...
