Molecular basis of vitamin K-dependent protein γ-glutamyl carboxylation
2025-02-09
Abstract excerpt
Gamma-glutamyl carboxylase (GGCX) in human is the sole enzyme responsible for catalyzing the carboxylation of glutamate (Glu) to γ-carboxyglutamate (Gla), a process that relies on the deprotonation of reduced vitamin K. This post-translational modification of vitamin K-dependent proteins (VKDPs) plays a pivotal role in numerous biological processes. Mutations in GGCX are responsible for multiple clinical phenotype...
