Gene information for SLC18A3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6572
Official gene symbolSLC18A3
Full namesolute carrier family 18 (vesicular acetylcholine), member 3
Aliases,MGC12716,VACHT,
Gene summaryThis 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. [provided by RefSeq]
