In enzymology, a protein-arginine deiminase (EC 3.5.3.15) is an enzyme that catalyzes a form of post translational modification called arginine de-imination or citrullination:

protein L-arginine + H2O protein L-citrulline + NH3

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are protein L-arginine (arginine residue inside a protein) and H2O, whereas its two products are protein L-citrulline and NH3:

The chemical conversion of arginine to citrulline, known as citrullination or deimination.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds, specifically in linear amidines. The systematic name of this enzyme class is protein-L-arginine iminohydrolase. This enzyme is also called peptidylarginine deiminase.

Structural studies

[edit]

As of late 2007, seven structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1WD8, 1WD9, 1WDA, 2DEW, 2DEX, 2DEY, and 2DW5.

Mammalian proteins

[edit]

Mammals have 5 protein-arginine deiminases, with symbols

except for rodents, there the letter case is different:

  • Padi1, Padi2, Padi3, Padi4, Padi6[3]

The different case is just a historical artifact. It doesn't indicate that the rodent proteins are special.
