THE organization of the mouse choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) gene has been previously
analyzed. Here we show that the first intron of the mouse ChAT gene contains an …

The sequence encoding the vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) has recently been
localized within the first intron of the choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) gene in various …

A cholinergic locus has recently been identified consisting of a unique mammalian genomic
arrangement containing the genes for choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and a putative …

Choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) is the biosynthetic enzyme of acetylcholine. In mammalian
tissues, it is encoded by multiple mRNAs with different 5 '-ends. This diversity results from …

The neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) is synthesized by the enzyme choline
acetyltransferase (ChAT) and then transported into synaptic vesicles by the vesicular …

Acetylcholine (ACh) is synthesized in nerve terminals from choline and acetyl coenzyme A
by the cytoplasmic enzyme choline acetyltransferase (ChAT). The neurotransmitter is …

Expression of the acetylcholine biosynthetic enzyme choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), the
vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT), and the high-affinity plasma membrane choline …

Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the structural features of vesicular acetylcholine
transporter (VAChT) deduced from its primary sequence, which give insight into its …

Choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) is a specific phenotypic marker of cholinergic neurons.
Previous reports showed that different upstream regions of the ChAT gene are necessary for …

Trends Neurosci.(1995) 18, 218-224 Acetylcholine is synthesized from choline and acetyl
