| Standard Name | CKI1 1 |
|---|---|
| Systematic Name | YLR133W |
| Feature Type | ORF, Verified |
| Description | Choline kinase; catalyzes the first step in phosphatidylcholine synthesis via the CDP-choline (Kennedy pathway); exhibits some ethanolamine kinase activity contributing to phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis via the CDP-ethanolamine pathway; CKI1 has a paralog, EKI1, that arose from the whole genome duplication (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) |
