a The citrullinated-rhGK was generated as described in Methods based on in vitro citrullination by PAD. The native and PAD treated-rhGK were subjected to electrophoresis and followed by immunoblot with anti-glucokinase (α-GK) and anti-citrulline (α-citrulline). b The catalytic activity was measured spectrophotometrically at 25 mM glucose on 1 µg of rhGK and PAD treated-rhGK, respectively (see Methods). The error bars indicated SD of mean. c Enzyme kinetic analysis of GK was measured with seven dilutions of glucose (0–50 mM) and analyzed using GraphPad Prism Software. Km and Vmax were calculated by rhGK and PAD-treated rhGK curves, respectively, with p value of 0.0093 (computed by the F-test) between two Michaelis–Menten equations.
