Bioactivity | Citrulline-specific probe-biotin is a biotinylated probe for detection of citrulline. Citrulline is the hydrolysis product of arginine catalyzed by protein arginine deiminase (PAD). PAD is abnormally activated in many diseases, leading to increased citrulline levels. Citrulline-specific probe-biotin is a biological probe that can identify diseases showing abnormal increases in PAD activity and may be effectively used in animal models of ulcerative colitis[1]. |
