Protein Z is a member of the coagulation cascade, the group of blood proteins that leads to the formation of blood clots. It is vitamin K-dependent, and its functionality is therefore impaired in warfarin therapy. It is a glycoprotein. Structural analysis of protein Z will allow better understanding of its function. From a Ramachandran plot, the secondary structure of Protein Z was determined. The Ramachandran plot utilizes mathematical equations to determine the possible angles of the amino acids within the primary sequence of Protein Z. The possible angles results in a plot of possible secondary structures. The Ramachandran plot for protein Z indicates it will form alpha helices. The final structure, all aphla domain, was determined by x-ray diffraction. It consists of chain A and B, which are both helix-loop-helix motifs.

Human Vitamin K-dependent protein Z (PROZ) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate PROZ in samples. An antibody specific for PROZ has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyPROZ present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for PROZ is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of PROZ bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
