Assessment of peptidylarginine deiminase activity by ELISA using human fibrinogen as substrate

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingBook chapterResearchpeer-review

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for measurement of the activity of peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs), the enzymes responsible for citrullination, is described. It uses fibrinogen as substrate for the enzyme and a commercial antibody specific for the citrullinated form of fibrinogen.
