**Background of Recombinant Human VKORC1 Protein**
The vitamin K epoxide reductase complex subunit 1 (VKORC1) is a key enzyme in the vitamin K cycle, essential for blood coagulation and calcium homeostasis. It catalyzes the reduction of vitamin K 2.3-epoxide to its active hydroquinone form, which is required for the post-translational γ-carboxylation of clotting factors (e.g., Factors II, VII, IX, X) by γ-glutamyl carboxylase (GGCX). This modification enables these proteins to bind calcium and participate in coagulation.
VKORC1 gained prominence as the target of warfarin, a widely used anticoagulant. Mutations in VKORC1 can cause warfarin resistance or sensitivity, highlighting its clinical relevance. Structurally, VKORC1 is a small transmembrane protein localized in the endoplasmic reticulum, with a redox-sensitive cysteinerich region critical for its enzymatic activity.
Recombinant human VKORC1 protein is produced via heterologous expression systems (e.g., mammalian or insect cells) to study its biochemical properties, interactions with anticoagulants, and role in vitamin K metabolism. Its recombinant form enables structural studies, drug screening, and investigations into mechanisms of drug resistance. Research on VKORC1 has advanced our understanding of coagulation disorders, bone health, and the development of safer anticoagulant therapies. Additionally, its role in reducing vitamin K quinone contributes to cellular antioxidant pathways, linking it to broader physiological processes. The elucidation of VKORC1's crystal structure in recent years has further accelerated mechanistic and pharmacological studies.
