Biochemistry — 5 Questions

1
Biochemistry

A patient on prolonged broad-spectrum antibiotics develops prolonged PT. Which biochemical defect is responsible?
1). Reduced fibrinogen synthesis
2). Failure of γ-carboxylation of glutamate residues
3). Defective collagen synthesis
4). Reduced platelet production

📝 Explanation:

Antibiotics reduce intestinal vitamin K production, impairing γ-carboxylation of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors II, VII, IX, and X.

2
Biochemistry

The primary function of ABCA1 protein is:
1). LDL uptake
2). Cholesterol efflux to HDL
