DescriptionPhosphorylcholine, also known as choline phosphate or CHOP, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phosphocholines. Phosphocholines are compounds containing a [2-(trimethylazaniumyl)ethoxy]phosphonic acid or derivative. Phosphorylcholine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to plants to humans. In yeast, phosphorylcholine is involved in the metabolic pathway called the lysolipid incorporation into er pc(18:1(9z)/18:1(9z)) pathway. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Phosphorylcholine.
