Choline-Phosphate Cytidylyltransferase

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: An enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of cytidylate (CMP) to choline phosphate to form CDPcholine. It is the rate-limiting enzyme in the choline pathway for the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine. Its activity is increased by glucocorticoids. EC 2.7.7.15.  DF: CDP CHOLINE SYNTHETASE    Other names Phosphocholine Cytidylyl-Transferase, CTP; Cytidylyltransferase, Choline-Phosphate; Cytidylyltransferase, CTP Phosphocholine; Cytidylyl-Transferase, CTP Phosphocholine; Cytidyltransferase, Phosphocholine; Cytidyltransferase, CTP Phosphorylcholine; Cytidyl Transferase, Phosphorylcholine; Choline Phosphate Cytidylyltransferase; CTP Phosphocholine Cytidylyl Transferase; CDP Choline Synthetase; Phosphorylcholine Cytidyl Transferase; Phosphocholine Cytidyltransferase; CTP Phosphorylcholine Cytidyltransferase; CTP Phosphocholine Cytidylyl-Transferase; CDP-Choline Synthetase; Transferase, Phosphorylcholine Cytidyl; Synthetase, CDP-Choline; Phosphorylcholine Cytidyltransferase, CTP; Phosphocholine Cytidylyltransferase, CTP; CTP Phosphocholine Cytidylyltransferase
