UniProtKB description:  Plays a key role in phospholipid biosynthesis by catalyzing the phosphorylation of free choline to phosphocholine, the first step in phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis (PubMed:17007874, PubMed:19915674, PubMed:23416529, PubMed:34077757). Also phosphorylates ethanolamine, thereby contributing to phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis (PubMed:17007874, PubMed:19915674). Has higher activity with choline (PubMed:17007874, PubMed:19915674). May contribute to tumor cell growth (PubMed:19915674).
