General description

Peptidyl arginine deiminase 6 (PAD6) or PADI6 is a member of the peptidylarginine deiminases. It is expressed in oocytes and preimplantation embryos. The gene encoding this protein is localized on human chromosome 1p36.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Peptidyl arginine deiminases (PADs) convert arginine residues to citrulline residues in the presence of calcium ions. The PAD family members are thought to be involved in multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis pathophysiology, and they play a role in epidermis homeostasis. PAD6 is essential for formation of a novel oocyte-restricted fibrous structure, the cytoplasmic lattices (CPLs). PAD6/CPL superstructure plays a key role in regulating microtubule-mediated organelle positioning and movement.

Organelle positioning and movement in oocytes is largely mediated by microtubules (MTs) and their associated motor proteins. While yet to be studied in germ cells, cargo trafficking in somatic cells is also facilitated by specific recognition of acetylated MTs by

Peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD, EC 3.5.3.15) enzymes catalyze the conversion of protein-bound arginine to citrulline. This post-translational modification may have a big impact on the structure and function of the target protein. In this review, we will discuss the effects of
