There are currently five known PAD isozymes in humans, referred to as PADI1-4 and PADI6 (1). PADI4 is a nuclear member of the PAD family and is responsible for deiminating R2, R8, R17, and R26 on the histone H3 (2-4). Deimination of histone residues prevents CARM1-mediated arginine methylation and results in transcriptional repression (2,3). Expression of PADI4 is increased during myeloid differentiation and various polymorphisms have been implicated in rheumatoid arthritis (5-8). PADI4 can play a role in apoptosis and cell cycle arrest upon DNA damage, as it is recruited to the p21 promoter by p53 and also regulates a subset of p53 target genes (9,10). Hypercitrullination of histones by PADI4 contributes to chromatin decondensation and the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) to combat bacterial infection in a process called NETosis (11,12). Inhibition of PADI4 reduces NET formation, making it a potential therapeutic target (13).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nHL-60 PAD; PAD; PAD4; PADI-H protein; PADI4; PADI5; PDI4; PDI5; peptidyl arginine deiminase 4; peptidyl arginine deiminase, type IV; peptidyl arginine deiminase, type V; Peptidylarginine deiminase IV; Protein-arginine deiminase type IV; Protein-arginine deiminase type-4\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 68\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799824257193,"sku":"56308S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-56308s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
