    Abstract

    Phosphatidylcholine is the major phospholipid in eukaryotic cells. It serves as a structural component of cell membranes and a reservoir of several lipid messengers. Recent studies in yeast and mammalian systems have revealed interrelationships between the two pathways of phosphatidylcholine metabolism, and between these pathways and those for CTP synthesis and secretion via the Golgi. These processes involve the regulation of the CDP-choline and phosphatidylethanolamine-methylation pathways of phosphatidylcholine synthesis, CTP synthetase, phospholipase D and the phospholipid-transfer protein Sec14p.
