Protein-arginine deiminase
In enzymology, a protein-arginine deiminase is an enzyme that catalyzes a form of post translational modification called arginine de-imination or citrullination: Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are protein L-arginine and H2O, whereas its two products are protein L-citrulline and NH3.
