BACKGROUND: The VKORC1 gene codes for the VKORC1 enzyme, which is responsible for the reduction of vitamin K epoxide into vitamin K. VKORC1 enzyme is the target of vitamin K antagonists (VKA). Twenty-eight rare single mutations in the VKORC1 coding sequence have been reported from resistant patients receiving unusually high doses of VKA to achieve therapeutic anticoagulation.
OBJECTIVES: It has been suggested that these mutations are responsible for the resistant phenotype, while biochemical consequences of these mutations on the VKORC1 enzyme have not yet been evaluated. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the causality of the VKORC1 mutations in the resistance phenotype.
METHODS: Wild-type VKORC1 and its spontaneous mutants were expressed in Pichia pastoris and susceptibility to VKA was assessed by the in vitro determination of kinetic and inhibition constants.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: The in vitro analysis revealed that six mutations only (A26P, A41S, V54L, H68Y, I123N and Y139H) were associated with increase in K(i) , suggesting their involvement in the resistance phenotype observed in patients. A41S and H68Y led to selective resistance, respectively, to indane-1,3-dione and 4-hydroxycoumarine derivatives. The other mutations did not increase the K(i). Furthermore, 10 mutations (S52L, S52W, W59L, W59R, V66M, V66G, G71A, N77S, N77T and L128R) led to an almost complete loss of activity. These results suggest the existence of other resistance mechanisms.
