Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Ethanolamine-phosphate cytidylyltransferase that catalyzes the second step in the synthesis of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) from ethanolamine via the CDP-ethanolamine pathway (PubMed:9083101, PubMed:31637422). Phosphatidylethanolamine is a dominant inner-leaflet phospholipid in cell membranes, where it plays a role in membrane function by structurally stabilizing membrane-anchored proteins, and participates in important cellular processes such as cell division, cell fusion, blood coagulation, and apoptosis (PubMed:9083101). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:31637422, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9083101, ECO:0000303|PubMed:9083101}. |
| Pathway | Phospholipid metabolism; phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis; phosphatidylethanolamine from ethanolamine: step 2/3. |
| Protein Families | Cytidylyltransferase family |
| Tissue Specificity | Strongest expression in liver, heart, and skeletal muscle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9083101}. |
