Peptidylarginine Deiminase 3 (PADI3)

Target
PADI3
Molecular classification
Enzyme, Hydrolase
01

Overview

Peptidylarginine deiminase 3 (PADI3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the post-translational conversion of arginine residues in proteins into citrullines (deimination). It is primarily expressed in the skin and hair follicles, where it modifies structural proteins like filaggrin and trichohyalin, contributing to hair follicle formation and epidermal cell differentiation. Mutations in PADI3 are associated with uncombable hair syndrome.
