“Initially it has been suggested that fibrin is the most citrullinated protein in RA joints (Iobagiu et al., 2011), but now the presence of citrullinated vimentin and aggrecan is also detected (Glant et al., 2016).”

“2019, Venkatesh V. Nemmara, Paul R. Thompson, Development of Activity-Based Proteomic Probes for Protein Citrullination, Benjamin F. Cravatt, Ku-Lung Hsu, Eranthie Weerapana (editors), Activity-Based Protein Profiling, Springer, page 244, Given that aberrant citrullination is a hallmark of various autoimmune diseases and certain tumor types, it is important to develop protein detection methods to identify citrullinated proteins in complex biological systems.”

“It^([vimentin]) had already been described in AD (25) and is one of the most citrullinated proteins besides MBP and GFAP in WMMS.”
