Supplementary information

The target SLC44A1 also known as CTL1 is a member of the choline transporter-like family. This protein is essential for transporting choline across cell membranes. As a membrane protein it is involved in the uptake of choline a necessary precursor for the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine and acetylcholine. CTL1 has a molecular mass of approximately 70 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues including the brain liver and kidneys highlighting its importance across multiple biological systems.
Biological function summary

SLC44A1 plays a significant role in the synthesis of membrane phospholipids. It does not act alone; it forms part of a complex system involving other transporter proteins to ensure efficient choline uptake and utilization. By facilitating choline transport CTL1 supports the production of important lipids for cell membrane integrity and neurotransmission contributing to processes important for cellular communication and function.

Pathways

SLC44A1 impacts significant metabolic pathways such as the Kennedy pathway responsible for phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis. Its activity is closely associated with enzymes like choline kinase and phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase which further facilitate phospholipid biosynthesis. This pathway integration highlights its role in maintaining membrane structure and signaling functions.

SLC44A1 has implications in neurological conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease and certain types of cancer. In Alzheimer's impaired choline transport can lead to deficits in acetylcholine a neurotransmitter necessary for memory and learning. Moreover aberrant expression of CTL1 is linked with oncogenic processes in liver cancer. In these cases its interaction with proteins associated with choline metabolism and cellular growth indicates potential mechanisms underlying disease pathogenesis.
