My A&P book states: Cells, of course make more than proteins---they also synthesize glycogen, fat, steroids, phospholipids, pigments, and many other compounds. There are no genes for these cell products, and yet their synthesis is under indirect genetic control. How? They are produced by enzymatic reactions, and enzymes are proteins encoded by genes.

Yes, genes regulate the synthesis of phospholipids by encoding enzymes involved in the biosynthetic pathways. These enzymes are responsible for catalyzing the reactions that produce phospholipids, which are essential components of cell membranes.
