▶Association of warfarin dose with genes involved in its action and metabolismAssociationN=201Mia Wadelius et al.(2007)· Human Genetics
An association study of 201 warfarin-treated patients found that polymorphisms in VKORC1, CYP2C9, CYP2C18, CYP2C19, PROC, and APOE were significantly associated with warfarin dose requirement (P < 0.000175 for VKORC1 and CYP2C9). A multiple regression model incorporating VKORC1, CYP2C9, PROC, and non-genetic factors (age, bodyweight, drug interactions, treatment indication) accounted for 62% of the variance in warfarin dose.
About GGCX
This gene encodes an integral membrane protein of the rough endoplasmic reticulum that carboxylates glutamate residues of vitamin K-dependent proteins to gamma carboxyl glutamate, a modification that is required for their activity. The vitamin K-dependent protein substrates have a propeptide that binds the enzyme, with carbon dioxide, dioxide, and reduced vitamin K acting as co-substrates. Vitamin K-dependent proteins affect a number of physiologic processes including blood coagulation, prevention of vascular calcification, and inflammation. Allelic variants of this gene have been associated with pseudoxanthoma elasticum-like disorder with associated multiple coagulation factor deficiency. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
