A Secreted Bacterial Peptidylarginine Deiminase Can Neutralize Human Innate Immune Defenses
The keystone oral pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis is associated with severe periodontitis. Intriguingly, this bacterium is known to secrete large amounts of an enzyme that converts peptidylarginine into citrulline residues. The present study was aimed at identifying possible functions of this citr...
