Cholinephosphotransferase catalyses the final step in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) via the Kennedy pathway by the transfer of phosphocholine from CDP-choline to diacylglycerol. Ethanolaminephosphotransferase catalyses an analogous reaction with CDP-ethanolamine as the phosphobase donor for the synthesis of phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn). Together these two enzyme activities determine both the site of synthesis and the fatty acyl composition of PtdCho and PtdEtn synthesized de novo. A human choline/ethanolaminephosphotransferase cDNA (hCEPT1) was cloned, expressed and characterized. Northern blot analysis revealed one hCEPT1 2.3 kb transcript that was ubiquitous and not enriched, with respect to actin, in any particular cell type. The open reading frame predicts a protein (hCEPT1p) of 416 amino acid residues with a molecular mass of 46550 Da containing seven membrane-spanning domains. A predicted amphipathic helix resides within the active site of the enzyme with the final two aspartic residues of the CDP-alcohol phosphotransferase motif, DG(X)2AR(X)8G(X)3D(X)3D, positioned within this helix. hCEPT1p was successfully expressed in a full-length, active form in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells devoid of endogenous cholinephosphotransferase or ethanolaminephosphotransferase activities (HJ091, cpt1::LEU2 ept1-). In vitro, hCEPT1p displayed broad substrate specificity, utilizing both CDP-choline and CDP-ethanolamine as phosphobase donors to a broad range of diacylglycerols, resulting in the synthesis of both PtdCho and PtdEtn. In vivo, S. cerevisiae cells (HJ091, cpt1::LEU2 ept1-) expressing hCEPT1 efficiently incorporated both radiolabelled choline and ethanolamine into phospholipids, demonstrating that hCEPT1p has the ability to synthesize both choline- and ethanolamine- containing phospholipids in vitro and in vivo. << Less

A cholinephosphotransferase activity catalyzes the final step in the de novo synthesis of phosphatidylcholine via the transfer of a phosphocholine moiety from CDP choline to diacylglycerol. Ethanolaminephosphotransferase activity catalyzes a similar reaction substituting CDP ethanolamine as the phosphobase donor. We report the identification and cloning of a human cDNA (human cholinephosphotransferase (hCPT1)) that codes for a cholinephosphotransferase-specific enzyme. This was demonstrated using in vitro enzyme assays and in vivo measurement of the reconstitution of the phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthetic pathways in yeast cells devoid of their own endogenous cholinephosphotransferase and ethanolaminephosphotransferase activities. This contrasted with our previously cloned human choline/ethanolaminephosphotransferase cDNA that was demonstrated to code for a dual specificity choline/ethanolaminephosphotransferase. The hCPT1 and human choline/ethanolaminephosphotransferase (hCEPT1) predicted amino acid sequences possessed 60% overall identity and had only one variation in the amino acid residues within the CDP-alcohol phosphotransferase catalytic motif. In vitro assessment of hCPT1 and hCEPT1 derived cholinephosphotransferase activities also revealed differences in diradylglycerol specificities including their capacity to synthesize platelet-activating factor and platelet-activating factor precursor. Expression of the hCPT1 mRNA varied greater than 100-fold between tissues and was most abundant in testis followed by colon, small intestine, heart, prostate, and spleen. This was in marked contrast to the hCEPT1 mRNA, which has been found in similar abundance in all tissues tested to date. Both the hCPT1 and hCEPT1 enzymes were able to reconstitute the synthesis of PC in yeast to levels provided by the endogenous yeast cholinephosphotransferase; however, only hCEPT1-derived activity was able to complement the yeast CPT1 gene in its interaction with SEC14 and affect cell growth. << Less
