| Alternate Names |
|
| Background Information | PADI4 (Protein-arginine deiminase type-4) is a member of a family of enzymes responsible for the conversion of arginine residues to citrulline residues via catalysis of the deimination of the arginine residues. PADI4 down-regulates histone H3 and H4 arginine methylation, both by preventing arginine methylation by CARM1 and HRMT1L2/PRMT1 and by converting methylarginine to citrulline. This protein may play a role in granulocyte and macrophage development leading to inflammation and immune response. |

| UniProt Summary | FUNCTION: Catalyzes the citrullination/deimination of arginine residues of proteins. Citrullinates histone H3 at Arg-8 and/or Arg-17 and histone H4 at Arg-3, which prevents their methylation by CARM1 and HRMT1L2/PRMT1 and represses transcription. Citrullinates EP300/P300 at Arg-2142, which favors its interaction with NCOA2/GRIP1. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Protein L-arginine + H2O = protein L-citrulline + NH3. COFACTOR: Binds 5 calcium ions per subunit. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Cytoplasmic granule. Note= Cytoplasmic granules of eosinophils and neutrophils. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in eosinophils and neutrophils, not expressed in peripheral monocytes or lymphocytes. INVOLVEMENT IN DISEASE: PADI4 is thought to be a rheumatoid arthritis susceptibility locus [MIM:180300]. Could have an important role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis by increasing citrullination of proteins in rheumatoid arthritis synovial tissues, leading, in a cytokine-rich milieu, to a break in tolerance to citrullinated peptides processed and presented in the appropriate HLA context. SEQUENCE SIMILARITIES: Belongs to the protein arginine deiminase family. BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES: Kinetic parameters: KM=0.055 mm for fibrinogen KM=0.064 mm for filaggrin Vmax=33.2 µmol/H/mg enzyme toward fibrinogen Vmax=8.0 µmol/H/mg enzyme toward filaggrin pH dependence: Optimum pH is 6.5-9.0. |
