Figure 3. TAp73 regulates biosynthesis of phospholipids.
Expression of TAp73β induces biosynthesis of membrane lipids, including a substantial increase in phosphoethanolamine. The data also suggest that increased cytidine 5′-monophosphate may partially results from enhanced lipid membrane biosynthesis, through conversion of diacylglycerol to phosphatidylcholine. **p < 0.05.
