Detailed explanation-1: -Prothrombin, FVII, FIX, protein C, and protein S are vitamin K-dependent clotting factors or proteins strictly related to blood coagulation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Vitamin K is involved in the process of blood coagulation, being required for the synthesis of prothrombin and factors VII, IX, and X.
Detailed explanation-3: -Vitamin K is a nutrient that the body needs to stay healthy. It’s important for blood clotting and healthy bones and also has other functions in the body. If you are taking a blood thinner such as warfarin (Coumadin®), it’s very important to get about the same amount of vitamin K each day.
Detailed explanation-4: -Prothrombin (factor II) is a vitamin K–dependent coagulation factor. On activation, prothrombin is proteolytically cleaved to form thrombin, and in turn acts as a serine protease that converts fibrinogen to fibrin.
