  <name>Choline</name>
  <description>Choline is a trimethylammonium compound. Choine can be used as a substrate by bacteria to generate osmoprotectants.  Choline dehydrogenase (CHD) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of the osmoprotectant glycine betaine from choline. CHD is associated with the membrane, is electron transfer-linked and oxygen dependent.  </description>
