| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Vitamin K1 (Phylloquinone) is a lipid soluble polycyclic aromatic ketone used as a cofactor in the formation of coagulation factors II (prothrombin), VII, IX and X; anticoagulant factors protein C and S and as a cell signaling factor. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Vitamin K1 plays a role as a cofactor in the synthesis of γ- carboxy glutamate (Gla), formation of coagulation factors II (prothrombin), VII, IX and X. |
| General description: | Vitamin K1, also known as phylloquinone, consists of naphthalenoid and phytyl groups. Phylloquinone is present abundantly in photosynthetic plants and is a major dietary source. It is a fat-soluble vitamin. |
