basic FUNCTION
| catalyzing the deimination of arginine residues of proteins, post-translational modification of protein through the conversion of arginine to citrulline in the presence of calcium ions |
|
may be involved in cytoskeletal reorganization in the egg and early embryo |
|
oocyte-restricted PADI6 is essential for formation of a novel oocyte-restricted fibrous structure, the cytoplasmic lattices (CPLs) |
|
PADI6/CPL superstructure plays a key role in regulating MT-mediated organelle positioning and movement |
|
might play a unique evolutionary and essential role in early embryonic development in advanced vertebrate species |
|
protein participating in the subcortical maternal complex (SCMC), which is essential for embryonic progression past the 2-cell stage |
