Abstract excerpt
Vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) is the site of inhibition by warfarin and other antivitamin K drugs during oral anticoagulant therapy. The SNP rs9934438 in intron 1 of VKORC1 (c.173+1000C > T or 1173C > T) discriminating the VKORC1*2 haplotype is associated with low warfarin dose requirement and unstable prothrombin time - international normalized ratio. To genotype this SNP, we have...
