CHPT1 — Choline phosphotransferase 1

CHPT1 belongs to a gene co-expression module in 5 of 28 SCUBA cell types. Each module groups genes that rise and fall together in that cell type; the genes it shares a module with are its closest co-expression partners there.

Function

Catalyzes the final step of de novo phosphatidylcholine (PC) synthesis, i.e. the transfer of choline phosphate from CDP-choline to the free hydroxyl of a diacylglycerol (DAG), producing a PC. It thereby plays a central role in the formation and maintenance of vesicular membranes
