Choline, a component of the wall teichoic acid of Streptococcus pneumoniae, was converted to cytidine diphosphocholine via choline phosphate by enzymes which were identified in cell-free extracts of the pneumococcus. The first enzyme, choline kinase, was investigated in some detail. It appeared to have a pH optimum of 7.3 to 7.4 and was stimulated by Mg2+. Kinetic studies gave an apparent Michaelis constant (Km) for ATP of I mM, and for choline of 0.19 mM, with Vmax values of 3 nmol min-1 (mg protein)-1 and 0.5 nmol min-1 (mg protein)-1 respectively. The second enzyme, CDPcholine pyrophosphorylase was specific for CTP and had a requirement for Mg2+ with an optimum at 7 mM.
