To identify the internal propetide region of the Vitamin K-dependent carboxylase, five mutant carboxylase molecules (F496A, V502A, Q503R, Q503N, and P504Q) were generated identify the residues responsible for homologous substrate propeptide binding.

Phe496 correspond to residue  16: Consensus phenylalanine to alanine leads to a reduced affinity of the internal propeptide for the propeptide binding site.
