Target Name
CHKA
Target Full Name
Choline kinase alpha
Target Function
Has a key role in phospholipid biosynthesis and may contribute to tumor cell growth. Catalyzes the first step in phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis. Contributes to phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis. Phosphorylates choline and ethanolamine. Has higher activity with choline.
Target Subcellular Location
Cytoplasm.
Target Protein Families
Choline/ethanolamine kinase family
Target Synonyms
CHKA; CHK; CKI; Choline kinase alpha; CK; EC 2.7.1.32; CHETK-alpha; Ethanolamine kinase; EK; EC 2.7.1.82
Target Background
The major pathway for the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine occurs via the CDP-choline pathway. The protein encoded by this gene is the initial enzyme in the sequence and may play a regulatory role. The encoded protein also catalyzes the phosphorylation of ethanolamine. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
