General description

The amino acid Citrulline is required to detoxify the liver from ammonia, which is a waste product of the body from oxidation. Citrulline promotes energy and assists with the immune system. This unusual amino acid is formed in the urea cycle by the addition of carbon dioxide and ammonia to ornithine. It is then combined with aspartic acid to form arginosuccinic acid, which later is metabolized into the amino acid arginine.

Specificity

Multiple deiminated keratins in human cornified skin. Thought to react preferentially with citrulline residues in glycine rich contexts.

Immunogen

Linear peptide containing Citrulline.

Application

Detect Citrulline with Anti-Citrulline Antibody (Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody), that has been shown to work in WB & IHC.

The final step of keratinocyte differentiation, transition from the granular cells to the cornified cells, involves various post-translational modifications that include deimination of arginine residues. Major deiminated epidermal proteins are derived from K1. Two preferred deimination sites were identified in

Hypoxia is a prominent microenvironment feature in a range of disorders including cancer, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), atherosclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), infection and obesity. Hypoxia promotes biological functions of fibroblast-like synoviocytes via regulating hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF1α). Dysregulated protein citrullination

Cardiac contractile dysfunction is prevalent in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with an increased risk for heart failure. A hallmark of RA has increased levels of peptidyl arginine deaminases (PAD) that convert arginine to citrulline leading to ubiquitous citrullination, including in the

Thrombopoietic cells may differentially promote or inhibit tissue vascularization by releasing both pro- and antiangiogenic factors. However, the molecular determinants controlling the angiogenic phenotype of thrombopoietic cells remain unknown. Here, we show that expression and release of thrombospondins (TSPs) by

Peptididylarginine deiminase type 2 (PADI2) catalyzes the conversion of arginine residues to citrulline residues on proteins. We demonstrate that PADI2 induces T cell activation and investigate how PADI2 promotes activated T cell autonomous death (ACAD). In activated Jurkat T cells
