Bioinformation

Database Links	GeneID: 1103 Human CHAT GeneID: 12647 Mouse CHAT Swiss-port # P28329 Human Choline O-acetyltransferase
Gene Symbol	CHAT
Gene Full Name	choline O-acetyltransferase
Background	This gene encodes an enzyme which catalyzes the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. This gene product is a characteristic feature of cholinergic neurons, and changes in these neurons may explain some of the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Polymorphisms in this gene have been associated with Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment. Mutations in this gene are associated with congenital myasthenic syndrome associated with episodic apnea. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, and some of these variants have been shown to encode more than one isoform. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
Function	Catalyzes the reversible synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh) from acetyl CoA and choline at cholinergic synapses. [UniProt]
Research Area	Neuroscience antibody
Calculated MW	83 kDa
