Structural basis for Ca(2+)-induced activation of human PAD4

TL;DR: The crystal structure of Ca2+-free wild-type PAD4 shows that the polypeptide chain adopts an elongated fold in which the N-terminal domain forms two immunoglobulin-like subdomains, and the C-terminals forms an α/β propeller structure, which indicates that Ca2-binding induces conformational changes that generate the active site cleft.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nuclear Localization of Peptidylarginine Deiminase V and Histone Deimination in Granulocytes

TL;DR: The results suggested that the NLS is a classical monopartite NLS, which is not found in the three other PADs and may have implications in histone modifications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective Deimination of Vimentin in Calcium Ionophore-Induced Apoptosis of Mouse Peritoneal Macrophages

TL;DR: Western blotting analyses of the extract from macrophages incubated with 1 microM ionomycin showed selective deimination of vimentin without detectable degradation, suggesting localization of deiminated vimentsin around the periphery of round-shaped nucleus, which was thought to be an early morphological sign of apoptosis.
