Vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylase
BE0000403ProteinHumansGGCX
Mediates the vitamin K-dependent carboxylation of glutamate residues to calcium-binding gamma-carboxyglutamate (Gla) residues with the concomitant epoxidation of vitamin K hydroquinone to vitamin K epoxide (PubMed:17073445, PubMed:39880952, PubMed:39880037). It is acted on by 8 drugs in DrugBank.
