This enzyme has a molecular mass of approximately 18 kDa. VKORC1 helps in reducing vitamin K 23-epoxide to its active hydroquinone form which is necessary for the gamma-carboxylation of vitamin K-dependent proteins. These proteins are mainly responsible for blood coagulation. VKORC1 expression is high in the liver where much of the synthesis of clotting factors occurs.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nVKORC1 is integral to the vitamin K cycle an essential process for activating vitamin K-dependent clotting factors. It operates within a complex with its protein partner VKORC1-like 1 (VKORC1L1). This partnership is important for maintaining effective blood coagulation. The active form of vitamin K produced by VKORC1 ensures the activity of several blood clotting factors especially factors II VII IX and X. Without proper function of VKORC1 these factors would remain inactive.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe vitamin K cycle is where VKORC1 makes a significant impact and this cycle is vital for blood coagulation processes. Specifically VKORC1 reduces vitamin K epoxide working closely with gamma-glutamyl carboxylase (GGCX) another enzyme that modifies the glutamic acid residues on clotting factors. This modification is important for their proper functioning within the coagulation cascade. The interplay between VKORC1 and GGCX directly connects to the synthesis of active blood coagulation proteins.\u003cbr\u003e\nVKORC1 mutations are notably linked to warfarin resistance and susceptibility to bleeding disorders. Warfarin is an anticoagulant that targets VKORC1 to prevent clot formation and variations in this protein can lead to altered drug response. Furthermore any dysfunction in VKORC1 may result in vitamin K epoxide reductase deficiency affecting coagulation and leading to increased bleeding risk. Mutations could also affect partner proteins like coagulation factors II and VII leading to disorders related to abnormal blood clotting processes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855855964329,"sku":"ab206656","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab206656","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
