Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) are post-translational modification enzymes that citrullinate protein arginine residues. Abnormal protein citrullination by PAD2 has been closely associated with the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this study, we tried to develop a novel method for sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the determination of citrullinated proteins which may become a useful marker of human neurodegenerative diseases.
