Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables choline binding activity and choline transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in acetylcholine biosynthetic process and choline transport. Acts upstream of or within cholinergic synaptic transmission; in utero embryonic development; and neuromuscular synaptic transmission. Located in neuronal cell body and presynaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system and diaphragm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant distal hereditary motor neuronopathy 7; congenital myasthenic syndrome 20; and depressive disorder.
