  • Development of a high-throughput chemical proteomics workflow for profiling protein citrullination dynamics.
  • Improved specificity and throughput with glyoxal-based derivatization and a cleavable biotin linker for efficient peptide enrichment.
  • > 10-fold increase in detection of citrullinated peptides at sub-0.1% abundance.
  • Application to primary human neutrophils reveals dynamic regulation of citrullination by PAD4 inhibitor GSK484.
  • Identification of a 'core citrullinome' conserved across stimuli, including response to Candida albicans.
  • Extensive citrullination of linker histone H1 and structural proteins suggests remodeling of cell architecture during NET formation.
