VKORC1L1
Function
Involved in vitamin K metabolism. Can reduce inactive vitamin K 2,3-epoxide to active vitamin K, and may contribute to vitamin K-mediated protection against oxidative stress. Plays a role in vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylation of Glu residues in target proteins.
Sequence Similarities
Belongs to the VKOR family.
Cellular localization
- Endoplasmic reticulum membrane
- Multi-pass membrane protein
