About VKORC1

VKORC1 is warfarin's molecular target. A common promoter variant determines how much VKORC1 your liver produces, and therefore how much warfarin it takes to block the vitamin K cycle enough to thin your blood.

The combination of your VKORC1 and CYP2C9 genotypes explains more than half of the variation in warfarin dose between individuals.
