Characterization of the murine phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase-2 gene
Phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT) catalyzes the conversion of phosphatidylethanolamine to phosphatidylcholine in the mammalian liver via three sequential methylations. In the present studies, we cloned and characterized the murine gene for PEMT2, the isoform of the enzyme that loca...
