| phosphoethanolamine | 2-O3POCH2CH2NH3 +;a key intermediate in the formation of cephalins; formed in liver and brain by phosphorylation of ethanolamine. Phosphoethanolamine cytidylyltransferase, a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of cephalins; it catalyses the reaction of phosphoethanolamine and CTP to form CDP-ethanolamine and pyrophosphate.
