Synthesis of prothrombin

Vedclass · Answer

(A) Vitamin $K$ is essential for the synthesis of clotting factors in the liver,specifically prothrombin (Factor $II$),Factor $VII$,Factor $IX$,and Factor $X$. Prothrombin is an inactive precursor protein that is synthesized in the liver in the presence of Vitamin $K$. Once synthesized,it is released into the blood,where it later participates in the coagulation cascade to be converted into thrombin. Therefore,the primary role of Vitamin $K$ is in the synthesis of prothrombin.
