Discovery of new inhibitor for the protein arginine deiminase type 4 (PAD4) by rational design of α-enolase-derived peptides
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease affecting about 0.24 % of the world population. Protein arginine deiminase type 4 (PAD4) is believed to be responsible for the occurrence of RA by catalyzing citrullination of proteins. The citrullinated proteins act as autoantigens by...
