Carboxyglutamate biosynthesis

Compounds with vitamin K activity (Table 6.2) are required in our diets for y-carboxyglutamate biosynthesis (Table 4.1). This amino acid is produced from certain protein glutamyl residues by carboxylation. Proteins that contain y-carboxyglutamate are blood prothrombin and coagulation factors VII, IX, and X (see Chapter 7). Other proteins of this type are osteocalcin from bone and several kidney and muscle calcium-binding proteins. [Pg.144]
