Protein citrullination (or deimination), an irreversible post-translational modification, has been implicated in several physiological and pathological processes, including gene expression regulation, apoptosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and Alzheimer's disease. Several research studies have been carried out on citrullination under many conditions. However, until now, challenges in sample preparation and data analysis have made it difficult to confidently identify a citrullinated protein and assign the citrullinated site. To overcome these limitations, we generated a mouse hyper-citrullinated spectral library and set up coordinates to confidently identify and validate citrullinated sites. Using th... More
