Abstract

The deimination or citrullination of arginine residues in the polypeptide chain by peptidylarginine deiminase 4 alters the charge state of the polypeptide chain and affects the function of proteins. It is one of the main ways of protein post-translational modifications to regulate its function. Peptidylarginine deiminase 4 is widely expressed in multiple tissues and organs of the body, especially the central nervous system, and regulates the normal development of organisms. The abnormal expression and activation of peptidylarginine deiminase 4 is an important pathological mechanism for the occurrence and development of central nervous system diseases such as multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury, and glioblastoma.
