A non-catalytic role of choline kinase alpha is important in promoting cancer cell survival

Choline kinase alpha (ChoKα) is regarded as an attractive cancer target. The enzyme catalyses the formation of phosphocholine (PCho), an important precursor in the generation of phospholipids essential for cell growth. ChoKα has oncogenic properties and is critical for the survival of cancer cells....
