Glycerophospholipic Synthesis Involves CDP-Activated Intermediate Two General Mechanisms Phosphatidyl Portion of Final Product Will Split Off as CMP + PPi CDP-Diacylglycerol Phosphatidic Acid + CTP
CDP-Diacylglycerol + Inositol + CMP Phosphatidylinositol + CMP CDP-Diacylglycerol + Inositol
CDP + CMP
Phosphorylethanolamine Second Mechanism - Activate Add-on Molecule Adds to Diacylglycerol Splits Off ATP Phosphorylethanolamine CTP PPi Ethanolamine CDP-Ethanolamine
Phosphatidylethanolamine CDP-Ethanolamine + CMP + Diacylglycerol
