General description
Peptidyl arginine deiminase is the enzyme that converts arginine into citrulline.
Application
Peptidyl arginine deiminase has been used in a study that assessed promising novel biomarkers for the early diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis. It has also been used in a study to investigate the autopathogenic correlation of periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Calcium is required for peptidylarginine deiminase activity in vitro.
Unit Definition
One unit will produce 1 μmole of N-α-benzoylcitrulline ethyl ester from BAEE per hr at 55 °C at pH 7.2.
Physical form
Solution in 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, containing 10 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 1 mM EDTA and 10% glycerol
