Peptidylarginine deiminase 6 (PAD6) is an enzyme that is uniquely expressed in male and
female germ cells. To study the function of this enzyme in vivo we generated mice deficient …

The peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) are a family of calcium-dependent enzymes that
post-translationally convert positively charged arginine residues to neutrally charged …

Peptidylarginine Deiminases (PADs) convert arginine residues on substrate proteins to
citrulline. Previous reports have documented that PAD2 expression and activity varies …

Peptidylarginine deiminase (PADI) enzymes are increasingly being associated with the
regulation of chromatin structure and gene activity via histone citrullination. As one of the …

Selected for its high relative abundance, a protein spot of MW∼ 75 kDa, pI 5.5 was cored
from a Coomassie-stained two-dimensional gel of proteins from 2850 zona-free metaphase …

Citrullination, the conversion of peptidylarginine to peptidylcitrulline is catalyzed by
peptidylarginine deiminases (PAD). The expression of PAD isoforms displays great variation …

DAZAP1 (Deleted in Azoospermia Associated Protein 1) is a ubiquitous hnRNP protein that
is expressed most abundantly in the testis. Its ability to shuttle between the nucleus and the …

Abstract Peptidylarginine deiminase type 4 (PADI4) converts arginine residues into citrulline.
The current study focused on the expression of PADI4 in various subtypes of ovary cancers …

A disintegrin and metalloproteinase 3 (ADAM3) is a sperm membrane protein critical for both
sperm migration from the uterus into the oviduct and sperm primary binding to the zona …

PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are germ cell-specific small non-coding RNAs that are
essential for silencing transposable elements. Substantial efforts in the past decade have …
