Accession
GO:0140794
Name
histone arginine deiminase activity
Ontology
molecular_function
Synonyms
histone-arginine deiminase activity, histone citrullination
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
Catalysis of the reaction: H2O + histone 3 L-arginyl = histone 3 L-citrullyl + NH4+, resulting in histone citrullination. Source: PMID:15339660
Comment
