About SLC5A7

Cytogenetic location: 2q12.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:107,986,524-108,013,994 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 289 orthologues, 11 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Low expression observed in reference dataset.

Summary

This gene encodes a sodium ion- and chloride ion-dependent high-affinity transporter that mediates choline uptake for acetylcholine synthesis in cholinergic neurons. The protein transports choline from the extracellular space into presynaptic terminals for synthesis into acetylcholine. Increased choline uptake results from increased density of this protein in synaptosomal plasma membranes in response to depolarization of cholinergic terminals. Dysfunction of cholinergic signaling has been implicated in various disorders including depression, attention-deficit disorder, and schizophrenia. An allelic variant of this gene is associated with autosomal dominant distal hereditary motor neuronopathy type VIIA. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
