VKORC1 gene mutations found [Identifier] in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method Nominal   50722-8

LOINC Code


LOINC code50722-8
nameVKORC1 gene mutations found [Identifier] in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method Nominal
descriptionThe presence of the heterozygous missense mutation -1639 G>A in the VKORC1 gene can result in warfarin resistance. VKORC1 DNA analysis is performed by PCR followed by restriction enzyme digestion to detect -1639 G>A.
statusACTIVE

Fully-Specified Name

componentVKORC1 gene targeted mutation analysis
propertyPrid  =  Presence or identity:  Prid stands for “Presence or identity”, is used for assays that detect whether or not an analyte of a particular kind is present, and if it is, to identify the specific analyte.
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemBld/Tiss
    Bld  =  Whole blood
    Tiss  =  Tissue, unspecified
scaleNom  =  Nominal:  Nominal or categorical responses that do not have a natural ordering. (e.g., names of bacteria, reported as answers, categories of appearance that do not have a natural ordering, such as, yellow, clear, bloody.
methodMolgen  =  Molecular Genetics:  General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods.
