Ligands: ALA, ARG, EDO, NA Related: 5ak7 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, RCSB, PDBsum Function [PAD_PORGI] Deiminates the guanidino group of C-terminal arginine residues on a variety of peptides, including the vasoregulatory peptide-hormone bradykinin, to yield ammonia and a citrulline residue. May promote the growth of the pathogen in the periodontal pocket by producing ammonia, ammonia having a protective effect during acidic cleaning cycles in the mouth.
