Comparative genomics and mutagenesis analyses of choline metabolism in the marine Roseobacter clade [PDF]
Choline is ubiquitous in marine eukaryotes and appears to be widely distributed in surface marine waters; however, its metabolism by marine bacteria is poorly understood.

Biochemical characterization of the initial steps of the Kennedy pathway in Trypanosoma brucei:the ethanolamine and choline kinases [PDF]
Note related output below contains correction of this paper.Ethanolamine and choline are major components of the trypanosome membrane phospholipids, in the form of GPEtn (glycero-phosphoethanolamine) and GPCho (glycerophosphocholine).

Choline supplements: An update
In this comprehensive review, we examine the main preclinical and clinical investigations assessing the effects of different forms of choline supplementation currently available, including choline alfoscerate (C8H20NO6P), also known as alpha-glycerophosphocholine (α-GPC, or GPC), choline bitartrate, lecithin, and citicoline, which are cholinergic ...

Does litomosoides sigmodontis synthesize dimethylethanolamine from choline? [PDF]
Juvenile female Litomosoides sigmodontis secrete a protein (Juv-p120) highly modified with dimethylethanolamine (DMAE). In an attempt to establish the source of this decoration worms were pulsed with [3H]-choline and [3H]-ethanolamine and the radio ...

Functional genomics with a comprehensive library of transposon mutants for the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio alaskensis G20. [PDF]
UnlabelledThe genomes of sulfate-reducing bacteria remain poorly characterized, largely due to a paucity of experimental data and genetic tools. To meet this challenge, we generated an archived library of 15,477 mapped transposon insertion mutants in the

Potential of choline chloride - based natural deep eutectic solvents (NaDES) in the extraction of microalgal metabolites [PDF]
In a typical chemical process, the solvents are widely used for the dissolution of the reagents, to favor the kinetics and the thermodynamics of a chemical reaction, for the extraction of products, for the separation of mixtures.

Choline Redistribution during Adaptation to Choline Deprivation [PDF]
Choline is an important nutrient for mammals. Choline can also be generated by the catabolism of phosphatidylcholine synthesized in the liver by the methylation of phosphatidylethanolamine by phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT). Complete choline deprivation is achieved by feeding Pemt(-)(/)(-) mice a choline-deficient diet and is lethal
