Proteoform Analysis of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9/Gelatinase B and Discovery of Its Citrullination in Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovial Fluids

ObjectivesTo explore posttranslational modifications (PTMs), including proteolytic activation, multimerization, complex formation and citrullination of gelatinases, in particular of gelatinase B/MMP-9, and to detect in gelatin-Sepharose affinity-purified synovial fluids, the presence of specific MMP...
