About SLC18A3

Cytogenetic location: 10q11.23 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:49,610,310-49,612,720 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 249 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes.

Summary

This gene is a member of the vesicular amine transporter family. The encoded transmembrane protein transports acetylcholine into secretory vesicles for release into the extracellular space. Acetylcholine transport utilizes a proton gradient established by a vacuolar ATPase. This gene is located within the first intron of the choline acetyltransferase gene.
