Crystal structure of human peptidylarginine deiminase type VI (PAD6) provides insights into its inactivity
The human peptidylarginine deiminase type VI (PAD6) is essential in oocyte and embryonic development as a component of the supramolecular assemblies called cytoplasmic lattices. The crystal structure presented here suggests PAD6 assembles as a dimer resembling other PADs, albeit with compromised abilities to bind Ca2+ and substrates. This aligns with existing in vitro data which indicate an enzymatically inactive isoform of PAD.
