GENE SUMMARY
CHPT1 (Choline Phosphotransferase 1) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with CHPT1 include Mucolipidoses and Mucolipidosis Ii Alpha/Beta. Among its related pathways are Acyl chain remodelling of PE and Glycerophospholipid Biosynthetic Pathway. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include diacylglycerol binding and diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase activity. An important paralog of this gene is CEPT1.

OBSERVATIONS

Complication Evidence PMID
Nephropathy1. In situ hybridization revealed the levels of glomerular putative mCHPT1 in BALB/c mice tended to be slightly higher than those in KK/Ta mice. The altered renal mRNA expression of these genes may be involved in the development and/or progression of diabetic nephropathy.15254874
