Description:  PAD2 Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit (AMC) provides a convenient method for screening human PAD2 inhibitors.
Background:  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.
Features & Benefits:  Screen for inhibitors of PAD2; Assay 45 samples in duplicate; Plate-based fluorometric measurement (ex 355-365 nm, em 445-455 nm); Low background, high sensitivity
Storage:  -80°C
Warning:  For research use only, not for diagnostic use.
