ckc-1 encodes a putative ethanolamine or choline kinase, with somewhatmore sequence similarity to ethanolamine kinases; CKC-1 is the sole memberof a 'C' group of choline/ethanolamine kinases.
Predicted to enable ethanolamine kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Is an ortholog of human ETNK2 (ethanolamine kinase 2).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
