Description
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; spinal cord; and spinal cord neural tube. 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).
