IUBMB Comments
The reaction can occur in both directions . This enzyme occupies a central position in sphingolipid and glycerophospholipid metabolism . Up- and down-regulation of its activity has been linked to mitogenic and pro-apoptotic signalling in a variety of mammalian cell types . Unlike EC 2.7.8.3, ceramide cholinephosphotransferase, CDP-choline cannot replace phosphatidylcholine as the donor of the phosphocholine moiety of sphingomyelin .
