Assessment of third trimester choline phosphotransferase activity in uncomplicated human pregnancies

CDP--choline:1,2-diglyceride choline phosphotransferase (CPT; EC 2.7.8.2) undergoes a marked surge in activity in human amniotic fluid when assayed from 30 weeks of gestation to term. The activity of this enxyme, plotted against gestational age, follows a highly significant regression correlation fr...

Zusammenfassung:	CDP--choline:1,2-diglyceride choline phosphotransferase (CPT; EC 2.7.8.2) undergoes a marked surge in activity in human amniotic fluid when assayed from 30 weeks of gestation to term. The activity of this enxyme, plotted against gestational age, follows a highly significant regression correlation from which an equation can be obtained for the prediction of gestational age.
