VKOR uses two substrate binding amino acids, <scene name='90/904329/Kohhbond/4'>Tyr139 and Asn80</scene> to stabilize vitamin K in the binding pocket. Tyr139 and Asn80 hydrogen bond to carbonyl groups on vitamin K and stabilizes it within the binding pocket <ref name="Liu">PMID:33154105</ref>. Vitamin K is also bound via hydrophobic interactions within the binding pocket of VKOR. Hydrophobic residues of VKOR such as <scene name='90/904329/Kohydroaa/4'>Phe83, Phe87, Tyr88</scene>, form a hydrophobic tunnel within the binding pocket <ref name="Liu">PMID:33154105</ref>.
