Human VKORC1 mutations cause variable degrees of 4-hydroxycoumarin resistance and affect putative warfarin binding interfaces
28 Aug 2013
Abstract excerpt
Since the discovery of warfarin-sensitive vitamin K 2,3-epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1), 26 human VKORC1 (hVKORC1) missense mutations have been associated with oral anticoagulant resistance (OACR). Assessment of warfarin resistance using the "classical" dithiothreitol-driven vitamin K 2,3-epoxide reductase (VKOR) assay has not reflected clinical resistance phenotypes for most mutations. Here, we...
