Deiminates the guanidino group of C-terminal arginine residues on a variety of peptides, including the vasoregulatory peptide-hormone bradykinin, to yield ammonia and a citrulline residue. May promote the growth of the pathogen in the periodontal pocket by producing ammonia, ammonia having a protective effect during acidic cleaning cycles in the mouth. Full length recombinant protein corresponding to aa44-556 from Porphyromonas gingivalis Peptidylarginine deiminase, fused to 6X His-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E.coli.
