Summary
Predicted to enable choline O-acetyltransferase activity. Involved in locomotory behavior. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and neuron projection. Is expressed in brain; neurons; post-vent region; and spinal cord. Used to study congenital myasthenic syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease and congenital myasthenic syndrome 6. Orthologous to human CHAT (choline O-acetyltransferase).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
