Record overview

MGPD IDMGP000544
Gene ID1119
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namecholine kinase alpha
Gene Symbol CHKA
SynonymsCK; EK; CHK; CKI;
Alternate namescholine kinase alpha; CHETK-alpha; ethanolamine kinase;
Chromosome11
Map Location11q13.2
EC Number2.7.1.32
SummaryThe 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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
