Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 1120
Gene name Choline kinase beta
Gene symbol CHKB
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CHETKCHKLCKCKBCKEKBEKEKBMDCMC
Chromosome 22
Chromosome location 22q13.33
Summary Choline kinase (CK) and ethanolamine kinase (EK) catalyze the phosphorylation of choline/ethanolamine to phosphocholine/phosphoethanolamine. This is the first enzyme in the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylethanolamine in all animal cells.
