Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionpcyt-1 encodes a lipid-activated CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase (CCT), with CCT activity in vitro; recombinant PCYT-1 is most activated by a 1:1 mixture of phosphatidylcholine:oleate vesicles; an inhibitory 21-residue segment (residues 246-266) is critical for specific activation of PCYT-1 by lipids, since deletion or mutation of this segment causes PCYT-1 to be constitutively active without its normal lipid substrate.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004651

Automated_descriptionEnables choline-phosphate cytidylyltransferase activity. Involved in phosphatidylcholine biosynthetic process. Expressed in head. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spondylometaphyseal dysplasia with cone-rod dystrophy. Is an ortholog of human PCYT1A (phosphate cytidylyltransferase 1A, choline) and PCYT1B (phosphate cytidylyltransferase 1B, choline).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

RemarkMap 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.CGC_data_submission
