| Abstract: | Determinations of lung choline kinase and choline phosphotransferase activities in developing rat fetuses have revealed that both enzymes increase three days before birth at 19 days gestation. This change is accompanied by a significant elevation in de novo lecithin synthesis through the choline incorporation pathway. |
