PADI4 peptidyl arginine deiminase 4

Gene ID: 23569, updated on 27-Aug-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: PAD; PAD4; PDI4; PDI5; PADI5

Summary

This gene is a member of a gene family which encodes enzymes responsible for the conversion of arginine residues to citrulline residues. This gene may play a role in granulocyte and macrophage development leading to inflammation and immune response. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
