| Description | Protein Arginine Deiminase 2 (PAD2) is a guanidino-modifying enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of specific arginine residues to citrulline in a calcium-dependent manner. This enzyme has been implicated in several diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), retinal degeneration, and certain cancers. PAD2 has been shown to modify vimentin, fibrinogen and β/γ-actin. Extracellular levels of PAD2 are increased in the lungs of smokers, providing a link between smoking as a risk factor for RA and anti-citrullinated protein antibodies among RA patients. Cayman's PAD2 Inhibitor Screening Assay (Ammonia) provides a convenient method for screening human PAD2 inhibitors.Needed but not supplied: Please download the kit booklet to verify if UltraPure Water (Milli-Q or equivalent) or any other components are needed for this assay.WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use. |
