gpcp-1 encodes one of two C. elegans proteins orthologous to mammalian glycerophosphocholine phosphodiesterase (GPCPD1); by homology, GPCP-1 is predicted to catalyze the hydrolysis of glycero-3-phosphocholine to produce choline and glycerol 3-phosphate (EC=3.1.4.2).
Predicted to enable glycerophosphocholine phosphodiesterase activity. Predicted to be involved in glycerophospholipid catabolic process. Is an ortholog of human GPCPD1 (glycerophosphocholine phosphodiesterase 1).
